Trigger finger
Started playing pickleball in May with zero racket ball background. And 2+ wks back I think i developed trigger finger in my dominant hand's pinky. Maybe mid June I felt something was wrong but didn't realized what it was, I normal cracked my knuckles but in June I did noticed when I tried to cracked my Pinky knuckle it would ache but didn't think much of it, thought I might have knocked my hand.
Then about 2 weeks back, I realized it was trigger finger cause one morning when I open my hand, the pinky was like stuck mid way then after a while it popped back straight.
I've rested about 2wks with zero play as I'm on holiday. Finger is much better, opens and closes smooth without locking, but on the inside I can feel like a notch moving when I open and close, which is not there on my other hand.
Wondering what I should do as I would like to start playing in a week's time when I'm back. I don't think I'm over gripping and have a quite loose grip like 3/10 most of the time, that I've drop my paddle mid game more than once.
