【what is a TFCC injury?】
TFCC is also known as "triangular fibrocartilage complex".
there are four ligaments on the little finger side of the wrist: 1) ulnar triangular ligament, 2) ulnar lunate ligament, 3) palmar radial ligament, and 4) dorsal radial ligament, which surround the joint disc on the little finger side of the wrist.
these are collectively called the TFCC (triangular fibrocartilage complex).
TFCC damage cannot be seen on x-rays, so an MRI is recommended.
however, it is important to note that even if there is an abnormality there, it may not be related to the pain you are experiencing.
trigger points in the skeletal muscles and ligaments that make up the wrist are often the cause of pain in the little finger side of the wrist.
