Key Considerations in Rehabilitation Flashcards
Why should TFCC treatment be individualized?
Tailoring treatment to each athlete’s needs, goals, and progress ensures that recovery is optimized and addresses specific functional demands of their sport.
How does professional supervision aid TFCC rehabilitation?
A physical therapist ensures that exercises and therapy are performed with proper technique and progression, crucial for safe and effective recovery.
Why is educating the athlete about wrist mechanics and ergonomics important?
Knowledge of correct wrist usage, protective techniques, and self-care helps athletes avoid re-injury and maintain wrist health in the long term.
How should pain be managed during TFCC rehabilitation exercises?
Exercises should not provoke significant pain; mild discomfort may be tolerated, but any sharp or escalating pain should prompt exercise modification or stopping.
