Measure
Corticosteroid With Lidocaine With Epinephrine
This arm includes an injection mixture of corticosteroid and lidocaine with epinephrine Corticosteroid with lidocaine with epinephrine: Trigger finger injection
Corticosteroid With Normal Saline
This arm includes a mixture of corticosteroid and normal saline. The purpose of normal saline is the keep the volume and concentration similar when compared to the injections containing lidocaine. Corticosteroid with normal saline: Trigger finger injection
