One of the causes of trigger fingers is repetitive finger movements that cause stress to the hand. People who work with machines and farm give their hands more stress. Degenerative forces are responsible for the increase in trigger finger on the dominant hand. Numerous studies and reports have demonstrated a link between trigger finger and excessive gripping or hand flexion. Workplace does not affect the occurrence or development of trigger fingers. However, the amount of gripping and flexion you show with your hands and finger determines the severity of the disorder. Trigger finger can also affect people who work on laptops or use tools all day.
