Summary

This study compares two different skin cuts used during trigger finger surgery to see which one helps patients recover better. About 200 adults with trigger finger will be randomly assigned to get either a straight cut along the finger or a cut across the palm crease. Researchers will measure hand function, pain, scar healing, and how quickly people return to normal activities over 12 weeks after surgery.
