    The best method of treating Trigger finger is to have laser to the nodule. You can feel the decrease in size of the nodule as you go on with the treatment for 2 or 3 sittings. Ultrasound is also found to be effective. One of the main factor which hindres here is his occupation which may have lead to trigger finger. Position he used to keep his pen or any of his tool should be ruled out.
    Hope this will improve the condition a lot. This was my perspective , it may be wrong.

    Exclamation nodule

    As said ultra sound seems to work very well. Another means would be friction/massge of the problem area. Having said this you have to be careful in case she did indeed have a Suddeck. Keep in mind that these nodules appear as a result after some from of traumatic event and is some form of scar tissue.

    Re: treatment for stiffness after colleys fracture

    I think you should start with ultrasound and friction massage if it is not painful. If not painful start tendon mobilisation and mild stretching. I have tried on one of my patiend and its effective. best of luck.
