My daughter, who is now six, was born with a trigger thumb that would
not straighten out all the way. If it did"pop" out it caused great pain.
It was surgically repaired about a year ago with complete success by the
local small town orthopedic surgeon. A child required a general
anasthetic, I do not know if an adult would also have to be put under. She
has subsequently started piano lessons,so we are glad we had it fixed!

Good Luck,

Ross
