Sometimes it's hard to tell the difference between Dupuytren's and "trigger finger" which I had and affected my ring finger and now my middle finger on the same hand. Steroids worked for a while on the ring finger but after the second time the hand dr did the surgery. She described it as "putting the rope back in the pulley. The middle finger has largely fixed itself (ie, the "trigger" part is reduced but I still can't lay my hand flat but there is no pain when making a fist so I have skipped the dr. so far. I've accepted the fact that like the engine in my 60's car that parts wear out and unfortunately, doctors haven't perfected a rebuild on the human body (yet).
