Hi Michelle, the exercises as shown in your videos have been extremely helpful and have reduced the pain in my trigger finger significantly. The most useful aspects have been hyper-extension of the knuckle followed by ice. Love your work. Thanks heaps!

[@chrismarchetti-olson6632]

Can you show taping for the thumb please? Great video! Thank you 🌼

[@ImaginationGirl87]

Thank you for this video! I've been waiting months to see a hand specialist for my trigger finger and this gives me more relief than any braces or anything else I've tried

[@michellewelch6013]

Im so grateful for your instructions to tape and support my “trigger finger”. The stuck joint is exquisitely painful and I cant see the doc for three more weeks. The doc offer no suggestions but to live with it until I can see him. I dont look forward to surgery so taping is definitely a means to possibly reduce symptoms or, maybe even bring about healing without more steroid shots. This tape suppport has brought some definite relief from pain. At least I can brush my teeth and hair now without the finger snapping down. Thank you so very much for kindly offering this instruction!

[@francessoroka9301]

Michelle thank you. The tape has been a blessing for my multiple trigger fingers. I am able to knit with small needles again.😊

[@VirtualHandCare]

Wonderful to hear! Glad it helps!

[@debbiedonella3892]

Immediate relief ❤ thank you so much

[@kimpollard589]

Thank you so much for showing how to do this by yourself. That's me. Lol. I have been struggling with this for a year and a half on multiple fingers in both hands and my gp just told me to take meloxicam. Smh. I craft and do lots of things with my hands every day and I can't just not do anything for 8 weeks. I did try kt tape in the past on my own and it helped but I wasn't adding all of what you did. Going to try this today.

[@ginobass66]

So happy I found this channel. Do you have a video on taping trigger thumb? Thank you. I’m doing your 3 trigger thumb exercises.

[@cleovenus3639]

I would like to say a huge thankyou for this video because it helped a lot my little finger was my trigger finger it started throbbing for the first hour but then the pain eased with a panadol I’m glad it helped and didn’t keep me from being able to go to work ♥️

[@VirtualHandCare]

You are welcome! 🙏

[@chickita005]

Hello Michelle, your videos are great and I just purchased 2 oval 8 from your site. I am very active and live on a farm, so taping my thumbs would be extra helpful while the heal. Is it possible to learn from you how to immobilize the thumbs joints? Many thanks for your response

[@Janetitayt]

Can you show how to tape your trigger thumb please

[@coldbloodedkiz]

Hi. With this taping scenario, can i play hockey with it? Thanks

[@laurawildey1024]

I'm going to try these exercises and hopefully get some good results.

[@jeteye97]

Are any of the kinesio- tapes hypoallergenic? I get a strong reaction to some of them. It seems like it’s from the adhesive, because I haven’t had any latex allergy reactions to anything else, but then I’m not In close contact with a lot of latex products for nearly as long as the tape is left on.

[@jeslinchng]

How do I tape if I have two trigger fingers in one hand? How long do I need to keep the tape on?

[@leticianevarez8611]

Can it be done with two fingers

[@THEHORSELOVER235]

How can you wrap your thumb

[@jeslinchng]

What if I have more than one finger on one hand?

[@DOLfirst]

Helpful hint... clean area with isopropyl alcohol before applying tape. An oil free surface will help the adhesive last longer.

[@rebeccaschadt7136]

How do you apply the tape if it's on your thumb?

[@smashly87]

Please please please make a video on how to tape trigger thumb! I’m a very active mom of three little boys and a silly little thumb is slowing me down (and is very PAINFUL!😢)

[@VirtualHandCare]

I don't have a video for kinesiology taping trigger thumb but my Band-aid trick works too- kzbin.info/www/bejne/lZbId2yqnr1-ea8

[@dancingwithgramma3339]

Can you make a video with 5 trigger fingers on 1 hand cuz that's what there gonna do the surgery on my left hand

[@joshuacorrea8114]

Having problem with retraction of my finger after sprain. Should I tape finger to retract to regain mobility?

[@joshuacorrea8114]

4months in

[@TheFaisal91]

Hello mam i have problem in my trigger and middle finger both are not going perfectly upward how can i fix it i am in very big problem please help

[@ritasnow8319]

Hand therapists can make a simple ring style splint that you simply slide on and off, like a ring. It keeps you from bending your largest knuckle. But often times, either a cortisone injection will help, or surgery if it keeps reoccurring.

[@suzieholbrook6922]

Can you use this technique for your pointer finger?

[@bjk0norway0bjk]

yeah worked for me

[@tuppens2007]

What if it’s the little finger?

[@Sylkenwolf]

My dr said mine is due to DeQuarvein's or tenosynovitis.

[@elisatrujillo8320]

Would taping the thumb be the same?

[@VirtualHandCare]

Very similar! Unfortunately I don't have a video in that yet!

[@gittedeutch64]

@@VirtualHandCare Would be great if you will make a video with tape for a Trigger Thumb! Thanks

[@lithium-Moto]

And lost the tip of my middle finger in a lacerated the flexor tendon in the pointer finger... I'm wondering what is the chances of me being able to use my whole hand again :(this injury in my head put my whole brain into depression.

[@VirtualHandCare]

I don’t know hold old your injury is or the severity but don’t give up on it!

[@mariyakalai3920]

Hello mam , I am doing your exercises.i have a doubt . Can I use hand gripper with these exercise ?. I am a girl. Will it reduces fat from fingers and give long fingers? Plz reply me mam

[@zaramakkink1850]

By the way, you can’t spot lose fat. Fat will go away if you eat less calories, but you can’t do exercises to choose where fat is burned from. It’s all genetics

[@soumiamoujane3695]

Should I see my doctor as I have trigger thumb?.

[@VirtualHandCare]

Yes it’s always good to see a hand doctor if you suspect trigger thumb!

[@soumiamoujane3695]

And it's the first time I've had it?.

[@roistevenmendoza1750]

Can i use ductape? Hmmmmm

[@VirtualHandCare]

No!

[@jujubegold]

Argh ….rolls hand

[@publix19631963]

I'm sorry to say this but you are not a doctor that is not the way to treat trigger finger very bad

[@savannahadams2338]

She is certified hand therapist. CHT's know more about hands than most doctors? Unless they are hand doctors. And this is a perfectly fine conservative method to help a trigger finger. Where do you get your information???
