I had trigger finger surgery four weeks ago. I have some swelling near the area of the surgery but it is not red or hot. I get occasional shooting pains that occur through the finger from the area of the surgery continuing up to the top knuckle in the finger. This occurs sometimes when I m doing nothing but sitting and relaxing in a chair. The pain is sometime excruciating and will last for a minute or two then goes away. My hand is still sore when I stretch the fingers either by opening or closing them after they have been in the same position for a few minutes. I have had surgery on three other trigger fingers and have always seemed to have fully recovered in 2 to 3 weeks and have never experienced this type of pain like what I have had from any of the 3 previous surgeries. What is the possible problem? My email is YYYY@YYYY
