Finger Injury

If you’re in the DMV, go to the Curtis National Hand Center in Baltimore. I’ve had 4 hand surgeries, all successful.

ugh! i continue to have bouts of it in my left ring finger. cortizone helps for a while but it isn't a cure for me. not spending all day hunched over a computer keyboard helps, as did changing to a silicon wedding band and sleeping with a brace. good luck, man! find what works for you but dont give up

I had trigger finger with my left little finger. My PCP recomended surgery. He said that if he had to have surgery on his hands this was only sugeon he would go to. Several years now, and, no problems. He even showed me how to minimize scar tissue. Theres no scar at all. Be prepared to have bandage for a while. That worked out well for me. I used that time for some well needed practice on lap steel!

How long was the recovery period after surgery (i.e. how long without being able to play guitar?)
