TFCC injury is a term that fitness people must understand and pay attention to, because it is difficult to heal, the recovery cycle is long, and once injured, it may face the pain of not being able to train for a long time. TFCC refers to the triangular fibrocartilage complex, which connects the ulna and the carpal bone in the wrist joint, plays an important role in the stability of the wrist joint, and controls the completion of internal and external flexion, extension, lifting, and pushing of the wrist.
TFCC injuries are mainly caused by external forces, violent injuries such as falls, wrist braces, and in some people, the ulna is born with a long ulna, resulting in ulnar impingement syndrome. For people with fitness, thrusting with heavy weights can also cause TFCC injuries. Once injured, it is often accompanied by pain in the small thumb joint, a significant decrease in grip strength, and limited range of motion of the wrist.
You can test yourself for TFCC damage in three simple ways:
1.Hold down the armrest from the chair and get up with wrist pain.
2.Wrist pain when turning the key to open the door or turning the doorknob.
3.Wrist pain when grasping the bottom of the bracket with the palm facing up.
If this happens, please go to the hospital in time to avoid aggravation of symptoms.
To prevent TFCC damage, you can take the following steps:
1.When weighting on the extrapolating movement, wear wrist guards and don't rely too much on the wrist.
2.Strengthen the training and relaxation of forearm muscles to improve the stability and flexibility of the wrist.
3.Add some exercises to improve wrist flexibility, such as wrist rotation and extension.
With the right precautions, you can protect your wrist health, reduce the risk of TFCC injury, and make your fitness journey more secure and enjoyable.
