Is Releasing Of Tendons Recommend To Treat Trigger Finger?
My family Dr. has said I have trigger finger and has referred me to an orthopaedic surgeon for analysis. I have heard about releasing of tendons for this condition. My question is, if I have this procedure done, will I have similar use of my finger and hand after the procedure?
