Has anyone ever heard of trigger finger surgery?

Answer 1

They will make an incision on the palm side of your finger. Then they will cut the fascia (like plastic wrap) around a portion of the muscle and tendon to improve your finger's motion. This will also significantly decrease or eliminate the trigger finger. I am not an orthopedic surgeon, so this may not be the exact, precise procedure, but that is the general idea.

BEFORE you get surgery, have you received a cortisone injection in your finger? Many physicians will try improving trigger finger with an injection first, then resort to surgery if the injection fails. I have personally seen the injection resolve trigger finger, so if you haven't tried that, you may want to consider it before you are opened up.
