Introduction
Physical Therapy in Hazle Township for Wrist Issues
Welcome to FYZICAL Hazleton’s resource to Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex (TFCC) Injuries. Triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injuries of the wrist affect the ulnar (little finger) side of the wrist.
As the name suggests, the soft tissues of the wrist are complex. They work together to stabilize the very mobile wrist joint. Mild injuries of the TFCC may be referred to as a wrist sprain. Significant disruption of this area through injury or degeneration, however, can cause more than just a wrist sprain. A TFCC injury can be a very disabling wrist condition.
This guide will help you understand:
- what parts if the wrist are involved
- how these injuries occur
- how health care professionals diagnose the condition
- what treatment options are available
- what FYZICAL Hazleton’s approach to rehabilitation is
