Y***n 发帖数: 53 | 1 Rafael Nadal’s doctor, Angel Ruiz-Cotorro of the Spanish Tennis Federation
who has treated the 11-time Grand Slam champion since he was 14, tells Mundo
Deportivo that Nadal’s injury "is annoying and painful, but not
significant."
Ruiz-Cotorro said that Nadal suffers from the disease Hoffa's syndrome,
which is "fat inflammation" behind the patellar tendon and is part of the
tendonitis suffered by Nadal. Hoffa's syndrome occurs when the fat pad
becomes pinched between the distal thigh bone and the kneecap.
"He's doing well. Next week it will be tested and if the result is positive
we will continue with the same treatment," said Cotorro, who added that
Nadal is trying to deflate the tissue in his knee during his rehabilitation
process via physical therapy, electrodes, laser and deep thermotherapy. | l**7 发帖数: 3940 | 2 And the most significant symptom of this syndrome is routinely 背扣肛门 |
