A member asked:
Nail bed repaird under local anaesthesia. trigger finger appear afterward.is trigger finger related to the local anaesthesia (nerve block)?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Not typically: The two are usually not related. Trigger finger is usually caused by an enlargement or swelling if the flexor tendon as it enters the flexor tendon sheath causing it to "trigger"; this should not really be related to a digital block.
