Surgeons test which snip is best for sticky fingers
NCT ID NCT05251428
Summary
This study compared two common surgical methods for treating trigger finger, a condition where a finger gets stuck when bent. Researchers wanted to see if completely removing a small piece of tissue (excision) works better than just cutting it (incision) at reducing pain and preventing the problem from coming back. Eighty adult patients having surgery were randomly assigned to one of the two procedures and followed for a year to measure their pain, stiffness, and overall recovery.
