I have a tfcc injury. used a splint for 2 months, most of the pain has gone but still hurts when i rotate my hand. should i buy a wrist widget?

It might help.: The problem with a tfcc tear is that it becomes progressive. Local measures will not last. It would be good for you to see a sports medicine doctor as they see injuries such as this frequently. It may require surgery
