If it is trigger finger, it does not relieve by medication or physiotherapy. It is a mechanical problem in the finger. This is due to the thickening of the flexor tendon sheath in the index finger
Next Steps
Surgery - Release of the A1 pulley in the index finger
Health Tips
Do not try to forcefully extend the finger. Consult an orthopaedic surgeon immediately
