[QUOTE="mcs, post: 278502, member: 12"] How old are you? 64 y/o here. No one knows trigger finger better than me at this point. I have had TF surgery on 7 digits to date. I thought I was amongst the minority of men who get this since it mainly affects older women. I haven't known too many lifters who've complained of it, but perhaps it's more common and guys just live with it. My surgeries all went well, no pain, all covered by insurance, however, the stiffness and post-op flexion and extension pain still lingers for months but hasn't affected my workouts. The main thing is - the TF is GONE! I got back into the gym and my grip strength came back pretty quickly. My problems now are in my wrist and CMC (thumb) joint and elbows (medial epicondylitis), carpal and cubital tunnel syndrome as well. I believe all of these joint issues are from RSI (repetitive strain injury) that has accumulated over the many years of heavy lifting & gripping. Corticosteroid injections - not worth the risk; only provide temporary relief and then repeated injections are toxic to the ligaments & tendons which will further weaken them. Few ortho docs will tell their patients that, but tons of studies back it up. Those peptides are great for post-op healing, I use them and many more for healing and tissue regen myself, but they will not reverse your TF once it's set it. Even PT did nothing to reverse it. Surgery (open or percutaneous release) is the only option. Post-op is open season for regen therapies (peptides + PRP, prolotherapy, stem cell therapy, intra-articular injections of GH, etc.). I went to a local hand surgeon for the TF. I use Peptide Sciences for my peptides and Regenexx for my non-surgical ortho procedures. Best of luck. [/QUOTE]
