Athletistic/Figure Skating. Doctor of medical sciences Andrey Shestakov refutes the claim that the injection of anti-inflammatory drug could lead to health complications for the 2006 Olympic champion in ice dancing Roman Kostomarov. In the program “Life and Fate” of the TV channel “Russia 1”, coach and close friend of Kostomarov Alexander Zhulin suggested that an injection of anti-inflammatory drugs could be a possible cause of pneumonia.

Dr Shestakov said: “Of course, no anti-inflammatory injection could lead to such serious complications, until the limbs were amputated. Obviously, the diagnosis was wrong initially. The combination of COVID-19 and pneumonia had a serious effect on the joints. . Roman first complained of joint pain “That’s why he was prescribed this injection. However, the injection could not have any effect, because the problem was deeper. The main symptoms went unnoticed, mistaken for a cold. And for Roman, the joints are the tools of his work, of his work. This is the most sensitive area for an athlete. That’s why he got help for his joints first.”

The main cause of the destruction of the body was multiple infections that occurred in the presence of COVID-19 and pneumonia. In addition, the main symptoms were ignored for a long time, which led to complications and the need for amputation. Therefore, it is important to be aware of your body and not ignore its signals, Shestakov said in an interview with Sport24.
