Not all TFCC. Tears need surgery. I would still recommend a conservative approach with a wrist brace for 4 weeks. If on review , there are symptoms of painful clicking, then a PRP injection can be administered.
Surgery through wrist arthroscopy is if symptoms exist after at least 3 months of conservative treatment.
