I have trigger finger (little finger) after over practicing golf. slowly healing w anti inflammatories.: 1- can ostheopathy help? 2- can i play golf?

Maybe: The tendon is out of the groove in the hand. If the hand bones are crooked, osteopathy can help. Still will need injected or surgery. Can you play golf? Do not know, never saw you play!
