– I was really sorry that I miss the championships. At the time, I didn’t think about what to do next. The only thing in my head was that I would miss this party. However, injuries are an integral part of sport – said Martyna Czyrniańska, whose health problems were eliminated from participation in the world championships.
Martyna Czyrnianska is one of the unluckiest volleyball players in recent months. Due to a knee injury, she did not go to the European Youth Championships and the World Championships, she was eliminated by an abdominal muscle injury. – When I discovered the injury, I was completely unable to take care of it. For two days, I wanted to cry. Now I take it with distance and focus on my improvement – said the host of the national team and the police of Chemika.
She does not hide, however, that she greatly regretted the lost opportunity to play in the world championship. – I was really sorry that I missed the championship. At the time, I didn’t think about what to do next. The only thing in my head was that I would miss this party. But injuries are an integral part of sport, so I didn’t feel any injustice. You have to be ready for it somehow. It can happen to anyone – added the young contestant.
His problems with the abdominal muscles began before the friendly battles with German women. – We were in Poznań at the training camp before going to Germany for the fights. During practice, my stomach suddenly started hurting so badly that I couldn’t attack. I had to stop training. The next day I had an ultrasound and it turned out that I had a torn rectus abdominis muscle. The first doctor said that I would have a break of two to six weeks. I thought, “OK, two weeks is still not that bad.” I went to Germany with the team, but I couldn’t do anything. A day after my return, I saw a second doctor who told me that he agreed with the previous diagnosis, but that the return would take six weeks to three months. Then it all came out of me. The third doctor gave me an injection to help my stomach heal and admitted that I would be rested for at least four weeks after the injection. Four weeks have passed and theoretically I am supposed to be in a rehabilitation center until the end of the month. Later, I will return to the club and gradually start volleyball training – says Czyrniańska.
He was considered as part of the squad for the World Cup, even in case he wasn’t quite healthy. – There was such a solutionno way that even if everything wasn’t 100% good, I might have joined the team. However, there was a risk that the injury would get worse. And I’m not going to spend another month or two later in rehab. I want to heal everything and come back for the season. And so I think that by playing with pain, I couldn’t show my full potential. And so I will calmly start playing in the league. It is not necessary to think that there were chances to play in the championship. I wasn’t ready for this – concluded Martyna Czyrniańska.
