This is great information, thank you. Can you keep doing the massage until your finger releases?
@painfixprotocolАй бұрын
So glad you enjoyed it, Marina! Releasing a trigger finger takes consistency of effort over time.

Thanks for this advice.My fingers are locking mostly all night and on and off during the day. Annoying to the point of what can i do to stop it.

This has come at a great time. This happened to me in the middle of dog training class. How long do you recommend to wear the rock tape and how long to take the Movement Essentials? Will this help with migraines when I’m in the middle of one? Bev
@painfixprotocol Жыл бұрын
Body Xcellence - Properly applied Rock Tape applications can stay on for 3-5 days at a time. Movement Essentials® was designed to optimize joint health and ensure movement longevity so, I take them the same way I take a greens supplement or multi-vitamin.

Thank you Dt. If this condition caused by inflammation, why not take anti inflammatory medication like Celebrex?
@painfixprotocol4 ай бұрын
Great question, Yasim. It's important to remember that the inflammation in most of these cases is not random, but rather the result of overuse. I'm not opposed to treating the symptoms to help ease discomfort, but addressing the root cause of the inflammation should be a higher priority.

Thank you for your efforts, but Serrapeptase did nothing to alleviate my trigger finger in conjunction with my efforts to disrupt the scar tissue.

Sorry to hear that. Rehabilitation for trigger finger can be challenging.

@painfixprotocol15 күн бұрын
I would use a proteolytic enzyme like serrapeptase in combination physical rehab and light therapy to accelerate healing.

Hello, I recently had trigge finger repair surgery. I now have a larger knot in palm of my hand than before surgery. Still cannot close my hand. What can I do I take care of my mother.
@painfixprotocol4 ай бұрын
So sorry, Carol. I would start by speaking to your surgeon and discussing the complications you're having. I would also seek out a an expert in rehabilitation and begin working with them immediately to help you regain function. Wishing you a speedy recovery!

What can I use for when I’m painting art? It causes tingling. I bought a compression glove but hasn’t arrived yet…is that what artist use for trigger finger?
@painfixprotocol4 ай бұрын
It's a good question. In the early stages of treating trigger finger, I typically try to eliminate, limit or modify any and all activities that contribute to the issue as much as possible.

I don't have quite the trigger finger you describe. Rather, my third (ring) finger, usually on my left hand, but often on my right, cramps, bending sideways towards the second or middle finger. It seems my being stressed, as well as repetitive heavy work, as with a screwdriver, can set this off. Would you recommend the same exercises? Thanks for any advice.

Great question, Ian. It's hard to say for certain without an examination but that doesn't sound like trigger finger. You might take a look at this general hand/finger health video: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/np6SiMeKy6eRnpc.html

This works for thumb, too??
@painfixprotocol Жыл бұрын
Bob - For the thumb, the areas targeted with percussion will need to change as will the location the tape is applied and the mobilization is slightly more complex since the thumb has a different type of joint than the fingers. But, with proper application - yes, the same general strategies will work for the thumb.

I don't use much ice or heat. Light therapy provides all the benefits of those modalities with none of the downside. Here's a video that talks about it: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/h7V2aNKiv9m9YGg.html
