TFCC injury (self.fitness)

Got a partial TFCC tear climbing like six months ago and recovery has been slow. Ortho doesn’t think it needs operating and PT likes progress, so I guess I’m inclined to agree.

Anyone here have personal experience? Things are mostly recovered but it’s been very, very slowly improving for a couple months now. Like barely. Is the tail end meant to take this long?

Edit: I’m in my late 20s

Can'f you use dumbbells with a neutral grip instead of barbells? Stuff like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EFbifMHOXPc

They allow for greater ROM and you can use a heavier one for your healthy wrist.

My thinking was it wasn’t enough weight. I’ll watch the video soon and see though, if it works for that guy it should work for me
