"Trigger finger: locking of a finger in flexed position which releases suddenly with a snap/pop on extension; often painful"

Extra
- Trigger and pop
- Trigger finger is due to injury that involves the proximal interphalangeal and metacarpophalangeal joint; glucocorticoid injections are attempted if conservative therapy fails
- Mallet finger is due to forced flexion of extended digit, the distal interphalangeal joint is involved; glucocorticoid injections are not a treatment option
