I now have intermittent trigger finger in the middle finger of my left (non-dominant) hand: it's most obvious in the morning when I wake up: fortunately has not so far affected my playing of piano, guitar or button accordion, but no doubt it will eventually! I also have a lot of "palmar nodules" in the palm of my left hand which seemed to develop after a day playing at a djembe workshop, and hitting the rim too often and too hard with that same hand: that was over 10 years ago, but fortunately they have not progressed much in this time: however, my mother had Dupuytren's contracture in her hands in later life, so maybe this is on the cards for me! "Auld age disnae cam itsel' " - as my patients used to tell me!
