Trigger finger developed in fourth finger of both hands. More severe on the right. This comes and goes with exercise and if I am careful to sleep with my hands open. I've never had this problem before and am not prone to joint problems. My father had severe gout. I've asked if my reactions to the statin drugs might be related to this potential hereditary problem but was told there is no relation. Anyone else with family (or personal) history of gout who is also having side effects from statin drugs?
