Is there a medicine I can take to treat my Trigger Finger, and will it be effective?
Medications alone are not an effective treatment for trigger finger. However, medications such as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can assist with managing pain and inflammation prior to and during alternative treatments. Corticosteroids like dexamethasone, prednisolone, and triamcinolone can only be administered as injections into the tendon sheath, and not orally.
