hand surgeon
 
My husband needs a hand surgeon to fix a trigger finger. Has anyone had any experiences with this?

I have had four different trigger fingers fixed by dr, mahmood at the orthopaedic institute in ocala. In fact he is doing another one in a couple of weeks. Phone number is 352 620-1900. I really like him.

Is this an outpatient surgery? Did your insurance cover this and if you would share what was the covered procedure cost?

Dr Harding is wonderful. I’ve had nothing but good experiences with her abd her office. I am now in need of a wrist replacement. She has been one of only two in the state that can do that procedure. (352) 751-0981 Her Villages office number

Had multiple trigger fingers. Tried everything- cortisone shots (extremely painful and don't last that long), exercises and acupuncture. Found my cure on You tube. Daily intake of Vitamin B6 (P5P), Tumeric Curcumin, and Magnesium. Going on 4 years now with complete relief without surgery.

Perhaps it is the magnesium?

That’s interesting. Years ago I had to have four trigger finger surgeries, two on each hand. Soon I had another finger starting to bother me but I put off surgery. Looking back, I started to take magnesium in a liquid form. (I do not take the B6 nor the turmeric. I have kidney issues so I have to be careful what I take and turmeric is not allowed.). That fifth finger settled down and has not been a problem but I never connected it with the magnesium. Perhaps it is the magnesium that makes a difference?

Dr Bachura, Orthopedic Institute. He did surgery on both my wife and I. Very happy with his work.

Explore this. Neither doctor said it shouldn’t have made a difference…but it did.
Had trigger finger start in middle finger left hand about February 1 year ago. Really locking up. Found hand doctor from PCP and made appointment with Dr. Cynthia Harding. Couldn’t see her until October. Meanwhile the pointer finger developed it. Still can’t get it for appointment. OK, I’ll live with it until then.
Several months ago left rotator cuff acts up and sent for MRI. PCP points me to Dr. Cook at Advanced Orthopedic in Sharon Morse Bldg. Went there last month, October, and he says the thing is so bad that either needed a 50/50 surgery or a shoulder replacement. We being a chicken, I said no thanks, what else. He tells me a couple of shots might make it more comfortable. OK, do it. I happened to tell him about the trigger finger and asked if the shots might make that better. He said, “not likely”.
In two says, I noticed the trigger finger felt pretty good. Hmmm. Within a week it felt fine. Finally got to Dr. Harding and she did the exam and could not find any indication of trigger finger. I told her about the shot and she said,”that shouldn’t have done anything for it but maybe the steroids got into the blood and that did something.” Really?
Since the shot in the rotator cuff I have no symptom of trigger finger. Six weeks. Just saying.
