Trigger finger is usually caused by swelling of one of the tendons that run along your fingers and thumbs, although the exact reason why this occurs isn't fully understood.
For these reasons it was assumed that trigger thumbs in children are to be of congenital cause. However, more and more evidence which point towards an acquired cause have been found in recent studies. Therefore the name pediatric trigger thumb is also widely used (and currently preferred by some) for the same disorder.
