i was born with a trigger thumb had another steroid injection hurting pretty badly?
your problem is chronic and steroids long term therapy is harmful. this is why i recommend trying modalities that can help u on daily basis life time until you feel it is ok… physiotherapy :laser ultrasound hydrotherapy contrast baths iontophresis. and anti inflammatory gels. thumb support splint in severe flare ups. massage. all are possibly will cause progression to better living with that problem.
