Sorry to hear of your malady. The last thing a keyboard player needs is hand problems--I should know. The only thing I know that works for trigger finger is a regiment of steroids, usually Prednisone, which can have some nasty side effects, plus splinting, which allows the tendon to heal naturally. The combination usually takes a month or more to work, but the bottom line is trigger finger is essentially a warning that you may have to lighten your left hand playing technique. It's usually the result of tendon inflammation due to some sort of repetitive process.
Good luck,
Gary
gary....in that case maybe Diki will have to buy a YAMAHA S910 with it's ligtning fast & light keybed
