Hazard Injured His Right Psoas: Why Could It Have Happened?
Eden Hazard injured his right psoas, a powerful large muscle that will knock him out of competition once again. The Real Madrid footballer has had recent news about his repetitive problems associated with training and match disputes.
Although the problem this time does not seem to be linked, in the first instance, to the previous ones, it is worth remembering the athlete’s medical history. Well, since he is part of the Spanish team he has accumulated 9 injuries that did not let him play too much. This would be the tenth.
Let’s see, then, what were the last previous muscular and joint disorders, what it means that Hazard has now injured his right psoas and the anatomical repercussions of this muscle. Go for it.
Hazard injured his right psoas, but had more problems before
Eden Hazard’s last injury was a muscle tear in the left anterior rectus. This is one of the parts that make up the quadriceps, in the front part of the thigh. In that space between the hip and the knees, powerful and organized fibers are concentrated that allow the performance of various sports, including soccer.
A left anterior rectus tear is not always the same in everyone. For athletes there is greater risk due to the overexertion that training and strenuous seasons of games and competition imply. In clinical terms, muscle tears are classified into 4 degrees of severity:
First degree: no more than 5% of the muscle in question is affected. Sometimes it is even impossible to locate the damaged area with an ultrasound.
Second degree: the fibers separate up to 3 centimeters.
Third degree: the tear is greater than 3 centimeters and the aponeurosis, which is the fibrous layer that surrounds the muscle tissue, is damaged. There is usually a hematoma, that is, a collection of blood that occupies space, generates pressure and pain.
Fourth degree: it is the most serious form of all. The tear is complete across the width of the affected muscle and the hematoma tends to be of considerable size. It is disabling and surgical resolution is usually indicated.
We do not know what was the degree of muscle tear of Eden Hazard’s quadriceps. However, it is striking that, despite complying with the indicated rest and rehabilitation techniques, he has hurt himself again. This time the affected one is the psoas muscle, on which we will delve to understand it.
