Thread Trigger Finger Release
Unlock Relief from Trigger Finger—Without Surgery
Trigger finger, or stenosing tenosynovitis, causes painful locking or snapping of the fingers. It occurs when a swollen tendon or sheath prevents smooth movement, often resulting in stiffness, popping, or a bent finger that suddenly straightens.
Common in:
- Women
- Adults over 45
- People with diabetes, arthritis, or repetitive hand use
The Guo Technique: Thread trigger finger release is a minimally invasive procedure developed by Drs. Danqing and Danzhu Guo. Using ultrasound guidance, a smooth thread is looped around the affected tendon and gently manipulated to release it—no scalpel, no incision.
Advantages:
- In-office procedure with local anesthetic
- Minimal pain and downtime
- Most patients resume normal activities within 1–2 days*
*Individual results may vary. Discuss your recovery expectations with your doctor.
