No ooo...Not an injury, this could not be happening again, we deserve to see his trickery and magic on the pitch but it wasn't meant to be...He left injured😣😣😣

Lampard said it's most likely "HAMSTRING INJURY"

Let's Talk "HAMSTRING INJURY MADE EASY"

#PlayerInjuriesWithOdogwu
• What Are HAMSTRINGS?
- They are a group of 3 muscles found at the back of the thighs

- They run along the back of the thighs from the hip to just below the knee.

• Uses Of The HAMSTRING
- They're used for running, jumping and climbing

- Not used in standing or walking much
• What Is "HAMSTRING INJURY"
- It's commonly called "Muscle Pull"

- It's a tear or strain to the hamstring muscles or tendons

- It's very common in athletes including runners, footballers etc

- During a hamstring strain, the muscles gets overstretched and might even tear.
• Types/Grades Of HAMSTRING INJURIES

- There are 3 grades namely:
1. Grade 1 (Mild Muscle Strain)
Takes days to heal, we really hope this is what Ziyech has

2. Grade 2 (Partial Muscle Tear)
Takes few weeks to months

3. Grade 3 (Complete Muscle Tear)
Most severe,takes months.
• Symptoms Of HAMSTRING INJURY
- Sudden and severe pain during exercise
- Swelling
- Inability to move the leg

•Treatment
The RICE therapy is used:

R- Rest the leg
I- Ice the leg to reduce swelling
C- Compress the thigh with an elastic bandage
E- Elevate the leg
Pain relief
Hopefully what Hakim Ziyech suffered yesterday was either a grade 1-2 and might just be out for few days to weeks.

We keep our fingers crossed as he is assessed 🙇‍♂️
