ruckus_street Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 well, looks like iv got a condition called, in laymans terms, "trigger finger" - basically, when i wake up in the mornings,i have difficulty straightening my little finger on my right hand and a couple on the left. Think i might have to cut back on the trials for a bit. Any of you other guys ever had this?More info on it on here http://www.eatonhand.com/hw/hw022.htm Says it can be caused by activities which involve a lot of constant gripping - sounds just like trials to me! (or....self-love, but we'll not go into that, and besides, im right handed, joke!!! lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T-BAD Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 mine used to do that, its not very painful just they were stiff... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckus_street Posted August 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 yea it aint painful yet, just bloody annoyin in the mornins you kno, and dont want it to get any more serious (like a permanently locked finger...although at least id have an amazin grip on the bars! lol)pretty sure its related to my dramatic summer increase in trials riding, found another local rider you see, so been riding a lot recently, off to see the doctor soon though, get him to prescribe me some sorta anti inflammatory thingy or sumthin.and T-BAD, how long did yours do it for?

Willsey Posted August 15, 2006 Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 looks painful mate.. my dad just saw it and said his nan got that and he doesnt see how a few years trials could do it.. maybe to much spaking the monkey? lmao *ooo RLC i knew you would be validated soon! nice one bro* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruckus_street Posted August 15, 2006 Author Report Share Posted August 15, 2006 i rekon what you granny had was where it fully locks and wont go out, whereas mine is only temporary - as i straighten the finger, it stops at a point, then i apply more force, and then it straightens.i dunno, scew this, im taking up football (joke) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rids Posted August 16, 2006 Report Share Posted August 16, 2006 i used to get it from climbing its meant to do with busting of blood vessels when u use the finger to hard but over a period of time if u don't use the hands in that manner they get better but i found a cure for it while climbing you can by climbing finger tape it works a treat put it on before u use your bike can it really will help read this http://www.chockstone.org/TechTips/FingerTaping.htm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
