Padlocking Of The Affected Finger In A Bent Position
The locking of the fingers is one of the most common symptoms seen when trigger finger becomes worse. The finger can be locked in either a straight or bent position. The finger becomes unmovable and causes the patient to feel intense pain. The locking of the finger can be a sign of a serious complication. It can be either temporary or permanent. Temporary barring is when the finger pops back into its normal position. The pulley can become so thick that the tendons are unable to glide through. The locking of the fingers is therefore a very important symptom of trigger-finger.
