Sports doctor Dmytro Babeliuk assessed the complexity of the injury to Ukraine and Everton defender Vitaliy Mykolenko.
- There was information from the club that Vitaliy twisted his ankle and damaged the ligaments, but there are no specifics. It is not clear whether all three ligaments are torn or just one.
You need to understand that when a leg is twisted, a ligament is always torn - one, two or three. Almost never does such a story end in surgery. People recover from such injuries without surgery. It's just a matter of time.
It usually takes about a month, but there are nuances. The joint is complex and swells a lot. The 4-6 week period looks realistic. The fact that Mykolenko finished the half makes it clear that the injury is not so critical. The club season is over for Mykolenko, but he should be fully recovered for the Euros, but he won't have the game tone," vZbirna quoted the doctor as saying.
А скільки потрібно часу Віталію, щоб набрати таку чудову форму, яка була у нього до травми, цей "лікар" нічого не розповідає!
