A member asked:
My tfcc injury from hitting a heavy bag did not heal after 3 moths of immobilization. what does it mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May need surgery: It would seem somewhat unlikely that if your injury has not healed after 12 weeks of immobilization, that it would respond to further immobilization. You should discuss with your doctor, but surgery may be a consideration at this point.
