Johan Oviedo has a flexor strain, will be shut down for six weeks, and avoids surgery, but faces a lengthy recovery process.
"What a good day, and what a stupid accident...again. Five years after [my previous nose break], my nose is f---ed up even worse [laughs]. As you see, it's even more cracked the same direction, and when I touch [my nose], my bones are broken inside."
On a sunny and warmish late-November day, my husband and I were meeting some close relatives to deposit our brother-in-law's ashes in a columbarium beside the remains of his late wife, my husband's only sibling. She had died during the pandemic, and her husband had subsequently moved away, but none of us were going to let the grim reaper separate a couple who had been conjoined by a lifetime of shared experiences.
Peña was playing for the Dominican Republic team yesterday in an exhibition contest against the Tigers in advance of the World Baseball Classic. In the third inning, he fielded a grounder from Wenceel Pérez behind the second base bag. Peña was able to make the play and throw out Pérez but was seen looking at his finger. He was later removed from the contest.
He was chasing a loose ball in the closing minutes of Game 4 of the Eastern Conference semifinals when his achilles' tendon ruptured, sending him crashing to the floor as he clutched his lower leg.
With that, it ultimately concludes what has turned out to be a brutal 2025-26 campaign for Tanev and the Maple Leafs where he had spent more time on the sidelines than on the ice. The 36-year-old defenseman had missed almost two months of action earlier in the season due to a concussion. Following his return in late December, Tanev would subsequently suffer another groin injury just a few days later and had been on the injured reserve ever since.
The brain is the conductor of the orchestra, the muscles are the instruments. When your body is out of alignment, the orchestra is playing out of tune. Misalignment in the musculoskeletal system is frequently the root cause of chronic pain and the resulting poor posture.
Brenton Doyle has a sprained left wrist, reports Thomas Harding of MLB.com. The defensive stalwart has sat out the last three Spring Training contests after experiencing soreness pregame on Wednesday. He'll continue to rest for a few days before heading for follow-up examination. There's no indication at this point that Doyle's availability for Opening Day is in jeopardy.
The wrist is such a complex little area, Evans says, as they have evolved to allow an extraordinary range of movement while also supporting a high level of fine motor control the wrists mean we have the capacity to do both handstands and neurosurgery. It's got eight little carpal bones they're the axis of the wrist and then you've got your radius and your ulna, which are your two forearm bones, and then that joins in with your hand bones, your metacarpals, Evans says.
Riding a mountain bike comes with risks, and injuries are common among most riders, from minor cuts and scrapes to broken bones and more severe head trauma. But what are the common injuries from mountain biking, and what is the recovery like for the most common MTB injuries? Well, I've had most of them over the years. From the minor scrapes and bumps to the more severe head trauma, fractured bones, and ligament damage.
"A big blow but surgery is done so the comeback starts now," he posted. "It won't be for a little while but I already can't wait to get back playing for Liverpool and Northern Ireland. Thank you for all of the support."
For runners, the hips can be one of the most confounding and frustrating parts of the physiological puzzle for efficient movement. Every runner knows how crucial hip strength is - and how mobile hips are essential for both fast and pain-free running. Yet healthy, happy hips remain elusive. For many of us, our hips stay stiff no matter how much we massage and stretch them.
As they write, the Serbian has suffered a 'high-impact direct trauma', due to the tackle from Ignace Van der Brempt, who did not even get booked... The defender has been left with a 'large hematoma of the soft tissue and edematous-hemorrhagic imbibition of the fibular bone without interruption of the cortex'. In other words, a very strong blow, but not a fracture.
When you have an acute injury, your body is sending signals through the peripheral and central nervous systems and the immune system to say, hold on, I need to stop doing this so we can allow the tissue to heal, says Ericka Merriwether, a physical therapist and pain researcher at New York University. Rest, after all, is the first part of the familiar RICE therapy, which stands for rest, ice, compression and elevation.
Kayla's not been 100% for the last three years, Abdelaziz told Submission Radio. Since her PFL days, she always had tingling. She couldn't lift her arm... The UFC flew her to New York, and the doctors said she immediately needs surgery because if she doesn't get surgery, it could paralyze her. But immediately after the surgery, all the pain is gone.
That Atlanta Braves have taken another blow to their potential starting rotation with news this afternoon that starting pitcher Hurston Waldrep had an MRI after experiencing discomfort in his elbow while throwing batting practice. The MRI showed "loose bodies" but no ligament damage. Braves manager Walt Weiss met with the media and gave some additional details on Waldrep's status. Weiss said Waldrep will be meeting with doctors on Monday. The assumption is that some type of procedure will be needed.
Butler went down with 7:41 left in the third after receiving a post entry pass from Brandin Podziemski. While colliding with Miami's Davion Mitchell, Butler landed awkwardly on his right leg, and then immediately crumpled to the ground while holding that knee. After staying on the floor for several minutes while surrounded by teammates, Butler rose to his feet. He then slowly walked back to the locker room, helped by Jonathan Kuminga and Gary Payton II, and putting almost zero weight on his right leg.
Bracesys sidesteps all these limitations with an adjustable framework of segmented units, articulating connectors, and tension dials. The entire system weighs just 150 grams and folds flat into an envelope, yet provides rigid support comparable to traditional casts. More remarkably, clinicians can customize it to each patient's anatomy in real time, adjusting the fit as swelling decreases and healing progresses.
Graterol struggled with his shoulder in 2024, landing on the injured list during spring training due to a shoulder injury. He returned to the team in September, but went straight back to the injured list, spending the majority of the Dodgers' World Series run on the sidelines. The 27-year-old returned for the World Series, though, and made three appearances. He underwent surgery shortly after the season, and missed the entirety of the 2025 season with his injury.
Orioles infielder Jordan Westburg has been slowed by an oblique injury in camp and was already expected to miss the first few games of exhibition play as a result. However, it appears there's greater concern than just a mild oblique strain. Andy Kostka of the Baltimore Banner reports that Westburg was sent for imaging on his elbow. The results have not yet been disclosed.
