Treating trigger thumbs at the earliest stages helps one nib the problem without having to endure excessive thumb pain. Trigger thumb is an extremely typical and debilitating condition that seems to be most common in the general population of a wide range of adults and children. Trigger thumb causes inflammation or swelling and damages your sheath, covering the tendons in the thumb. Other conditions like arthritis, gamekeeper's thumb, UCL injuries, and tendonitis cause stiffness and discomfort.

Using a trigger thumb splint, one can fix their dislocated thumb joint and lessen the pain of arthritis or tendinitis that occurs in CMC and MCP joints. Neoprene-made sprained thumb brace provides gentle compression that helps relieve thumb pain or discomfort associated with CMC joint arthritis, instability, tendinitis, or repetitive motion. Thumb spica splint helps restrict the range of motion and allows your thumb to stabilize. However, some trigger thumb exercises to be performed at home with or without some exercise equipment can provide momentary relief.
