Second the wrist widget. It’s specifically for TFCC and is low profile and easy to wear.
I did a nice fall onto outstretched hand (FOOSH) crossing a creek hiking, fractured my distal radius, and surely ripped my TFCC as well since it was a great twisting action in my wrist when I fell.
Never was formally diagnosed since the wrist fracture was priority and honestly probably wouldn’t have changed the treatment plan anyway.
Surgery for TFCC is a crapshoot, esp as we get older and ligament structure degrades. Other treatments like splinting, resting, activity modification, CBD, icing, PT, and my fave, tincture of time, much better imo.
It does hurt like the dickens tho and I hope u feel better soon.
And formal medical opinion always good!
