Barbosa's freaky injury

Postby Fenix on Sun Mar 12, 2006 6:43 pm

"Doctors initially feared Barbosa had suffered a testicular torsion, a twisting of the testicle that results in a loss of blood flow. That would have meant an immediate surgery and a recovery time of four to six weeks. But hours later, doctors revised the diagnosis to an infection that could be treated by oral antibiotics and likely shorten recovery time to a week or less."


DAMN!

"He couldn't see when he was here," Wright said. "And being there, they did a great job there. Everybody did a great job. Our trainer got right to him. ... An ophthalmologist rushed across town and examined him. Now they said his vision's good and they're going to release him."

Wright said "it actually looked a lot worse than it was. It'll be a day-to-day prognosis now, but it's much, much better than they initially anticipated."
