A member asked:
Can arthritis cause trigger finger in multiple fingers? if yes, will the trigger finger subside once the arthritis is under control?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Potentially: Trigger finger is caused when inflammation if the flexor tendon causes a nodular enlargement of the tendon; and that nodule then catches on the entrance to the flexor tendon sheath. It is not directly caused by arthritis, but sometimes the same underlying cause of the arthritis can also lead to a trigger finger.
