Cant improve orthogonal quality. Wanna get rid of wedges for good

So I am trying to mesh this airfoil. But on the trailing edge, there are these wedge shaped elements that I cant get rid of. They have low orthogonal quality as you can see in attachment.

To improve element quality i used rectangular bodies in leading and trailing edge. Gave those bodies sizings of 4mm and 1mm respectively. I have around 39 million elements lol still not working

Face sizing for airfoil is 20mm

Patch Independent Method is for trailing edge.

I believe due to trailing edge being so this Ansys cant mesh it properly. I am open to any suggestions. Would be so glad if you could help
