Yep, I had trigger finger on my right thumb. I had "surgery" a couple of years ago, and have had no other probelms with trigger finger since then. The healing was very quick, which was a relief since I am right handed!

However, I did have to have my left thumb joint rebuilt in 2005 due to arthritis. That was a much more detailed surgery and I was off of work for a week, and in a cast for a month. My Mother had her right thumb done in 2006, and I am probably going to need to have my right one done also.... but hopefully not for a while. There is a nasty bone spur on it, but the arthritis is not as bad as it was in the left. My specialist is treating it with some shots that hurt worse than the pain from the surgery! AAGGHHH

Good luck! Keep us posted!
