Increasingly, patients rely on social media for guidance on self-managing conditions such as Triangular Fibrocartilage Complex (TFCC) injuries; however, the quality of this information has not yet been rigorously evaluated.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The aim of this research was to systematically assess TikTok videos demonstrating rehabilitation exercises for TFCC injuries, specifically evaluating their quality, reliability, and educational value.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>A cross-sectional study searched TikTok for \u201cTFCC rehab\u201d, \u201cTFCC exercises\u201d, and \u201cTFCC training\u201d. A final 123 videos were analyzed. Quality and reliability were assessed using DISCERN, Global Quality Scale (GQS), and JAMA criteria. Educational content was evaluated using an adapted TFCC Exercise Education Score (TFCCEES). Video characteristics, engagement metrics, and uploader types were recorded.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Overall quality was low (median DISCERN 28.00; 88.6% \u201cpoor\u201d or \u201cvery poor\u201d). Most videos (64.23%) were from non-health professionals. Health professionals scored higher on JAMA criteria (P\u2009&lt;\u20090.001), but no significant differences were found in DISCERN, GQS, or TFCCEES between groups. Engagement metrics showed negligible correlations with quality scores.
