It's possible your trigger finger is an early sign of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). It can also be caused by rheumatoid arthritis. RA was giving me occasional trigger finger until I started getting Remicade infusions.
About 10 years ago I had to cut my riding to almost nothing because of CTS. I've been keyboarding since the 80's, and it got progressively worst. It finally got to the point where 10 minutes of riding would put me in agony. I had double "carpal release" surgery (not on the same day) and it's not been an issue since.
