I had trigger finger over 10 years ago. Painful. Got a cortisone shot. Also painful, but it worked. It was my one and only cortisone shot and at the time I was lifting waits. I could feel the steroids in my body and for weeks following the shot, I was able to press notably more weight so i suspect I got a strong shot. But it has been over 10 years since the shot and trigger finger. So for those who say it shouldn't work I say, it could work and it was less invasive and expensive than surgery.
