Low Level Laser TherapyTrigger finger, also known as stenosing tenosynovitis, is one of the most common disorders affecting the hand. Its lifetime prevalence is 2-3%. Patients typically present with locking of the affected finger during flexion and painful catching during extension. In mild cases, pain, swelling, and morning stiffness may be present without triggering. In more severe cases, the affected finger may become locked in flexion. Conservative treatment methods, corticosteroid injections, and surgical interventions can be used in the treatment of trigger finger. Conservative treatment options include activity modification, splint immobilization, exercise programs, massage, physical therapy modalities including extracorporeal shock wave therapy and therapeutic ultrasound, and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Splinting is an inexpensive and effective treatment option for trigger finger. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) is a treatment modality based on photobiomodulation, which leads to biological changes in living organisms through the interaction of photons with atoms or molecules. LLLT is used to promote wound healing and tissue repair, prevent tissue damage, reduce inflammation and edema, and provide analgesia. Several studies have demonstrated the effectiveness of LLLT in the treatment of various musculoskeletal disorders. This study aims to investigate the effects of adding active LLLT to splint treatment in patients with trigger finger. Patients receiving active LLLT plus splint treatment will be compared with those receiving sham LLLT plus splint treatment in terms of clinical and ultrasonographic outcomes.
