OVERVIEW
It ight seem strange to some people. When you go to straighten your finger and it won't, then it releases all at once with a pop you can feel. That's trigger finger. In a bad case, the finger locks bent, and you end up prying it straight with your other hand.
The cause is a swollen tendon. The tendon that curls your finger runs through a snug tunnel called a sheath. When it gets irritated and puffs up, it stops sliding cleanly and hangs up in that tunnel. That hang-up is the pop and the lock you feel.
Some things make it more likely. Repetitive gripping, from tools, gardening, or a steering wheel. Diabetes raises the odds a good bit, and so does arthritis. Mornings are usually worst, when the finger has stiffened overnight and the first few bends hang up hard.
Most cases don't need surgery. At Modern Physical Therapy & Sports Medicine of Peoria, AZ, we settle the tendon down and get the finger gliding smoothly again.

DIAGNOSE
EXAM & IMAGING
We check how the finger catches, feel for the swollen tendon, and ask about your grip habits. Imaging is rarely needed for this one.
TREATMENTS
CUSTOM TREATMENT PROGRAM
We calm the tendon with splinting and activity changes, restore smooth gliding, and address the gripping patterns feeding it.

WE CALL TO CHECK IN

DJ at Modern Sports Medicine Physical Therapy and Orthopedics in Peoria, AZ is by far the best physical therapist I’ve worked with! He is extremely knowledgeable, professional, and clearly knows what he’s doing. His hands-on manipulation and manual therapy is over the top! I came from another physical therapy practice, and the care there wasn’t even close to the level I’ve received here. I’m very happy I made the switch and met DJ. Highly recommend him and this clinic. He is the best!!

I had a bad knee injury due to a sidewalk fall resulting in some major swelling, cuts and bruises and a slightly impacted meniscus tear. After seeing my PCP and having x-rays, I was directed to Physical Therapy. I searched several facilities and landed at Modern PT. I worked directly with DJ Repp for about 8 weeks and have to say DJ & his team are amazing. They were personable, and highly pro in all that they did in guiding the process to recovery. They work "together" with you according to a pace that you're comfortable with, while providing just enough challenge to keep you forward focused. I recovered so well under their great care. I would highly recommended this particular office at 83rd Ave & Cactus! in Peoria.

What Are You Experiencing?
Pain is hard to put into words. You might not have a good sense of what kind of care you need, and that’s OK. What matters is how things are right now. Please fill out this short form to summarize how things are. We will then follow up and take you through what may be causing the pain, as well as what may work as a solution.
LOW HIGH
SEVERE PAIN
If the pain is severe or more than you can manage, don’t wait. Call 911 or go straight to a hospital. Safety comes first. After that, we can help you find longer-term relief.
MODERATE PAIN / DISCOMFORT
Sometimes, pain may not bring you to your knees, but it still disrupts your daily life. Perhaps it’s intermittent and stabbing, or maybe it’s just present during the day. Let’s get those details from you, and we’ll do our best to determine what’s causing it.
MINOR PAINS & ACHES
Little aches hurt just as badly. A sore shoulder, stiff knees, or a throbbing ache that shows itself every once in a while can still take its toll. Let us know how you’ve been doing, and we’ll take care of it for you before it grows into something bigger.
