Hello.

Being fairly new to squash this year i've been playing a lot, and practising a lot and have seemed to developed a problem with one my little finger. I believe the condition is caused 'trigger finger' ( http://www.bbc.co.uk/health/conditions/triggerfinger1.shtml ) and is due to overuse of your hand (i.e. playing too much squash). I know that resting for a few weeks will help the resolve the problem, but i was wondering if anyone else has suffered from this, and if so, any thoughts on stopping it from happening again? - like a different size grip or something like that?

thanks
