Sports medicine starts with the Sun Miracle Doctor

Chapter 179 Steven Gerrard’s groin

Winning is of course a good thing, but Chen Yu is more concerned about the situation of Olajuwon and Ewing.

"The two of them." Nelson chuckled on the phone, and then said: "Chen, I think you are so awesome. How did you do it? In this game, the two of them actually started to cooperate, and they cooperated very well. good."

"At the end of the game, we grabbed 49 rebounds, 16 more than the Spurs. Although Hakeem only scored 9 points, under his defense, Duncan only scored 11 points."

"And Patrick, he and Hakeem played many wonderful collaborations and scored the team's second-highest 21 points. If you weren't there, Robinson couldn't guard him at all."

"By the way, after the game, the two celebrated with high fives and then started talking."

Looking at the whole game, it seemed as if the two had never had any conflicts.

And the cooperation was excellent, with one playing the main defense and the other covering the support. The Spurs were suppressed on both offense and defense.

It was completely impossible to tell that they were two old guys whose combined age was almost eighty years old.

And all of this was because of Chen Yu. Nelson even doubted whether Chen Yu had secretly talked to the two of them behind their backs.

Otherwise, there will be a fight in the previous game, and the next game will be reconciled?

In fact, Chen Yu did nothing.

But now that I think about it, doing nothing is the best option.

Olajuwon didn't say anything, but from the beginning, when Ewing said that he would rather play power forward, Chen Yu knew that even if the conflict intensified this time, Ewing would definitely make a compromise in the end.

His desire for a championship is too strong.

"Let's take another look. This is just a game after all, it doesn't mean anything." Chen Yu said with a smile.

Moreover, I don’t know if such a twin-tower arrangement can meet Scales’ expectations.

While Van Bronckhorst rushed to Phoenix, Chen Yu's clinic also welcomed another player.

"Dr. Chen, we meet again."

The visitor immediately held Chen Yu's hand with a smile on his face.

"Mr. Stevenson." Chen Yu responded with a smile and a nod.

It was Tony Stevenson. He was the old Haaland's agent. He had been to the clinic before and had met him.

But to be precise, he is not considered Haaland's exclusive agent.

Haaland Sr. signed a brokerage contract with the British SPX Sports Group, a large brokerage company. Stevens is only an employee of the company and was assigned to Haaland Sr. to be responsible for Haaland Sr.'s brokerage operations.

"Who is this one?" Chen Yu looked at another young man coming together.

He is in his thirties, also wearing a decent suit, with blue eyes, deep eye sockets, a well-groomed beard, and a full British style.

"Thank you, Dr. Chen." He stepped forward and handed out a business card with both hands.

Chen Yu took it and glanced at it.

Struan Marshall, also part of SPX Sports Group, is a colleague of Stevenson's.

Putting down his business card, Chen Yu looked behind the two of them. The young man wearing horizontal striped short-sleeves and a baseball cap was sitting in a wheelchair. When he noticed his gaze, he smiled bitterly and shyly.

Steven Gerrard.

A football genius who is only a few months shy of 22 years old.

"Did he have a groin strain?" Chen Yu frowned without revealing any trace.

This kind of injury can only be regarded as a minor injury, but to come all the way to the United States for treatment is a bit exaggerated.

Marshall listened to his friend and quickly said: "Dr. Chen, Steven's groin is very troublesome. It is an old injury. He entered the national team in 2000, and starting from the second half of that year, his groin problem began to become serious. Several times Missing national team games."

"Midway through, Liverpool helped him go to Germany to seek treatment from Bayern's team doctor Hans Wolfat."

This man has been at Bayern for many years and is also a famous doctor in world football.

"After his treatment, his back injury and groin injury were cured for a while, but then they recurred. At the beginning of last year's season, it recurred again near the end of the year. Then last week, the European Champions Cup and Gala He strained his groin again during the Tassare game."

"Originally, Liverpool wanted to go to Germany for treatment, but I don't think Germany is a good choice."

Wolfat is powerful, but no matter how powerful he is, why did Sauer and Deisler come to Chen Yu for treatment?

This can only mean that Chen Yu is better.

"I think his groin injury has affected his career, and the World Cup is approaching. We don't want him to miss the World Cup because of his groin injury, so he came to the United States. After all, you are the most popular person in the world. Top doctors have cured many players."

At the end of the conversation, Marshall even complimented Chen Yu very well.

It’s not a compliment, Ronaldo, Redondo and Baggio are the best examples.

After Baggio returned to Brescia this month, he was in hot form. He had already scored four goals in three games. He seemed to be back at the top of his game, and countless Italian media exclaimed that it was incredible.

Therefore, in European football, Chen Yu's reputation is not small at all.

After hearing what Marshall said, Chen Yu paid attention and looked at Gerald's groin with his all-seeing eyes seriously.

This disease of the groin is quite troublesome and easy to recur.

It is easier said than done to cure it completely.

As Marshall said, his frequent groin injuries began in the second half of 2000, and that year, he was selected for the national team.

Liverpool itself is a giant in the Premier League. With multi-line competitions and the national team, the consumption of players must be huge.

Even though he is only 20 years old, very young, but if you look at Landon Donovan, he also developed groin problems at this age. It was because of too many games and too much consumption.

At this look, Chen Yu frowned slightly.

"Where are the medical records?"

Chen Yu asked for Gerald's medical records and read them carefully.

He injured his right groin. The specific location of the strain was the same as Donovan's, which is the pectineal muscle that is most easily injured.

However, Gerrard's injury was more serious than Donovan's. Adhesion has appeared around the pectineus muscle, surrounding muscles, ligaments, and tendons.

This area is densely covered with arteries, veins, and nerves. Once inflammation and adhesion occur, the impact will be huge.

In addition, the pectineus muscle is located at the deepest part of the groin, making it difficult to operate. Simple medical treatment has almost no effect, which is also an important reason why complete recovery is difficult.

"Huh." Chen Yu suddenly let out a sigh, pointing to the medical record and said: "In the medical record, Wolfart diagnosed that his frequent back injuries have certain congenital causes. Do you know the specific details? "?" Gerrard not only has groin problems, but also back injuries, which occur frequently.

During his trip to Germany for diagnosis, Wolfart stated that his back injury was related to congenital development.

"I know." Marshall nodded. He was the one who went with him to Germany the year before last.

After recalling it, Marshall said: "I remember Dr. Wolfat said at the time that Steven had frequent back injuries, which may have been caused by his body growing too fast during his teenage years, but I am not a professional doctor about the specific problem. , I can’t say very clearly.”

Chen Yu glanced at Gerald again and roughly understood.

It should not just be that he grew up too fast, but that he came into contact with professional football too early and practiced too hard when he was a teenager.

Of course, many football players who can become stars have shown their talent early and played through bad classes.

But everyone is different. Some people are born with fast body fat and strong bodies.

And some people are slow to put on weight, and this may be the case with Gerald. The body grows too fast, and the development of muscles and bones is out of balance, laying hidden dangers for frequent injuries in the future.

If he had had some intervention as a teenager, he probably wouldn't have had this problem.

But it's too late to say that now.

The best choice now is to practice. Just like Tracy McGrady, who is born with a certain degree of scoliosis, you need to practice more back muscles to avoid back injuries to the greatest extent.

Putting down the medical records, Chen Yu arranged for Gerald to have a checkup.

After the examination, Marshall nervously asked if surgery was needed.

Even Gerald, who was in a wheelchair, became nervous.

The World Cup is only three months away. If he undergoes surgery now, he will once again miss the national team due to injury.

Chen Yu shook his head.

In the groin area, surgery is not a good option.

Instead, the most common surgeries performed were for inguinal hernias.

But for athletes, their common groin problems are usually inflammation, tendon and ligament tears, and surgery is also about repairing these things.

And as long as the tear is not severe enough, surgery is generally not an option, and physical therapy is the main option.

This is also the reason why it is easy to relapse and cannot be completely cured.

"By the way, can't you stand up now?" Chen Yu looked at Gerald. He had been sitting in a wheelchair since he entered the door.

Gerald shook his head: "It's not that I can't stand, but it hurts whenever I walk. The pain is severe and inconvenient."

Chen Yu also saw with his all-seeing eye that there was fascia adhesion near his groin, and with the tear, it would definitely hurt when he moved.

"Let him lie on the bed." Chen Yu called to the nurse and asked Gerald to lie on the treatment bed.

"wait for me."

Chen Yu left the consultation room, returned to his office, and took out a wooden box from under the cabinet.

Open it and find something wrapped in gauze inside.

Several disposable floating needle syringes and a set of small needle knives of different specifications.

For Gerrard's groin, there is muscle strain, inflammation and fascial adhesion.

Muscle strain requires recovery, and surgery is not necessary.

Inflammation needs to be controlled with medication.

If there was adhesion, Chen Yu suddenly thought that he might be able to use a small needle knife to deal with it.

Because even minimally invasive surgery can be harmful to the body.

This set of small needle knives was given by Zhou Chengyang when he visited China for exchange. Fortunately, Chen Yu was famous in the United States, so he successfully passed the security check and brought it back to Phoenix.

After taking out the small needle knife and returning to the consultation room, Gerald was already lying down.

"Take off your pants." Chen Yu began to disinfect the small needle knife.

Jerad's face changed slightly, and he silently glanced at the female nurse beside the bed.

When the female nurse saw that he was not moving, she thought it was inconvenient to use his hands and feet, so she leaned over to help him take off his pants.

Marshall's attention was focused on the small needle knife in Chen Yu's hand, and he hurriedly asked: "Doctor Chen, do you want treatment now?"

Chen Yu nodded, and then asked Gerald to spread his legs slightly, exposing his groin.

The action was a bit shameful, especially when there was a young and beautiful female nurse beside me.

However, when Gerald saw Chen Yu approaching with a five-centimeter-long steel needle, Gerald still whispered, pointed at the steel needle and asked, "Doctor Chen, what are you doing?"

Chen Yu picked up the syringe again and injected local anesthetic.

The small needle knife used to release the fascia is more painful than acupuncture, so it is better to use local anesthesia.

"Don't worry, it won't hurt."

Chen Yu asked the nurse to take action again and hold down Jerad.

So that you don’t move around if you haven’t done this kind of treatment.

Gerald wanted to struggle, but he was already lying on the bed, so he could only accept it silently, closing his eyes with an expression like "Do whatever you want."

Chen Yu did not hesitate, and accurately inserted the needle into Gerald's groin. The five-centimeter-long needle knife suddenly penetrated three to four centimeters.

Marshall and Stevenson watched with furrowed brows. After seeing this move, they involuntarily shrank their groins.

This injection looks very painful.
