Pain along the pinky side of the wrist can often point to a TFCC injury, especially when certain movements or pressure in that area reproduce discomfort. At Modern Orthopaedics, evaluating wrist stability, tenderness, and overall function helps determine the source of pain and whether further imaging or treatment may be needed.
From bracing and injections to advanced imaging like MRIs, the goal is to create a treatment plan that helps patients regain comfort, stability, and confidence in their wrist movement. If persistent wrist pain has been limiting your daily activities, it may be time to get it evaluated.

Cervical disc replacement is an advanced alternative to spinal fusion designed to relieve pressure on the nerves or spinal cord while still preserving motion in the neck. For the right patients, it can help reduce symptoms like neck pain, shooting arm pain, numbness, tingling, weakness, loss of dexterity, and even balance issues caused by cervical spine conditions.
At Modern Orthopaedics, the goal is to find the treatment option that best supports both pain relief and long-term function. If neck pain or nerve-related symptoms have started affecting your daily life, it may be time to get evaluated and discuss your options.

Your everyday habits could be contributing to neck and back pain.
Looking down at your phone for long periods and lifting with poor form can place significant stress on your spine over time. Simple adjustments, like bringing screens to eye level and lifting with your legs instead of your back, can help reduce your risk of injury.

What can recovery look like after a Jiffy Knee replacement?
In this video, Dr. Lee compares a patient’s progress at 2 weeks versus 8 weeks after surgery. While some swelling and discomfort are expected early on, many patients regain function quickly and continue to see significant improvements in mobility, strength, and walking mechanics over the following weeks.
Every patient’s recovery is different, but seeing progress over time can help set realistic expectations for the journey ahead.

TFCC tears can cause wrist pain that shows up during everyday movements like gripping, twisting, bearing weight, or even certain workout positions. Some patients also notice clicking, popping, or feelings of instability when rotating the wrist, especially along the pinky side of the hand.
At Modern Orthopaedics, a thorough evaluation helps determine whether wrist pain is related to a TFCC injury and what treatment approach makes the most sense for your lifestyle and activity level. If wrist pain or weakness has been interfering with your day-to-day activities, it may be time to get it evaluated.

TFCC injuries can happen for a number of reasons, from sudden trauma like a fall or car accident to repetitive strain and wrist anatomy that places extra pressure on the joint over time. Because the wrist absorbs so much force during everyday movement, even small injuries can eventually lead to persistent pain and instability.
At Modern Orthopaedics, identifying the underlying cause of wrist pain is key to building the right treatment plan and helping patients return to their daily activities comfortably and confidently. If you’ve been experiencing pain along the pinky side of your wrist, it may be time to get it evaluated.

What is orthopaedic trauma surgery?
Orthopaedic trauma focuses on treating broken bones and musculoskeletal injuries, ranging from simple fractures to complex injuries caused by car accidents, falls, motorcycle accidents, and other high-impact events.
While all orthopaedic surgeons are trained to treat fractures, orthopaedic trauma specialists complete additional training to manage some of the most severe and complex injuries, including multiple fractures and pelvic injuries.
