2. Diabetes
Diabetes is a condition that can cause many other related health issues. A person may develop diabetes over time as the body no longer processes blood sugars the way that it should. This leads to excessive sugar in the blood, which can cause a host of health problems. In some cases, a person is born with a pancreas that simply does not produce enough insulin.
If you suffer from diabetes, you are more at risk of developing other conditions as a result of the disease, this includes the development of trigger finger. Swelling is a common symptom of diabetes and when the finger joints swell, it can cause damage. This damage may result in the development of trigger finger. If you have been diagnosed with diabetes and notice that your fingers are clicking, and sticking in place, and you are experiencing discomfort and pain in your fingers, discuss these symptoms with your doctor right away.
