@daniel2709 I had CTS done many years (+10 or so) years ago. I have trigger finger in that hand. I was just reading articles published in medical journals about this. They state that anywhere between 5-35% of the time this occurs and it should be discussed preoperatively that this could be a side effect.
I too was getting injections in this finger to help with ease of movement. I think it’s really strange that as I am getting older my trigger finger is less of a problem.
