SF “Structural damage was found in my shoulder.” I had surgery in Korea 6 years ago. “It will likely take 4 to 6 months to recover from the surgery.”

Things changed in one day. Lee Jeong-hoo (26, San Francisco, photo) may have to undergo shoulder surgery again.

Major League Baseball (MLB) San Francisco said, “As a result of a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) examination, ‘structural damage’ was discovered in Lee Jeong-hoo’s shoulder,” and added, “He will travel to Los Angeles (LA) to be examined by Dr. Neil Elatrace.” “Planned,” he announced on the 15th.

Dr. Elatrace is the doctor who performed shoulder and elbow surgery on Ryu Hyun-jin (Hanwha). Shohei Ohtani (LA Dodgers) also underwent elbow surgery by this doctor last year. The Mercury News, a local San Francisco media outlet, expressed concern, saying, “When receiving a checkup from a renowned doctor, it often ends in the conclusion that it is surgery.” Lee Jeong-hoo underwent left shoulder surgery in November 2018 when he was playing for the Korean professional baseball team Nexen (now Kiwoom).

Lee Jeong-hoo was diagnosed with a dislocated left shoulder after colliding with the outfield fence during the top of the first inning of a home game against Cincinnati on the 13th. San Francisco coach Bob Melvin said ahead of the game on the 14th, “I don’t think surgery will be necessary,” but he was in a situation where he would have to undergo additional detailed examination. Even on the 15th, when the team lost 2-10 to the LA Dodgers, Lee Jung-hoo came out to the home stadium and hung out with his teammates with a bright expression.

Nirav Pandya, an orthopedic specialist and professor at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF), said, “Structural damage means that there may be abnormalities not only in the labrum (which holds the humerus from the shoulder blade) but also in the bones. “Depending on the degree of damage to the labrum and bone, symptoms of dislocation may appear repeatedly,” he said. “If surgery is performed, recovery will take about 4 to 6 months. “If surgery is not necessary, you will be able to return in 4 to 6 weeks,” he explained. 토토
