Figure skater Ksenia Sinitsyna said the traumatologist did not notice a fracture in her foot on the x-ray and that she had to practice with the fracture.

Sinitsyna scored 73.77 points and took first place in the short program at the stage of the Russian Grand Prix in Samara. Previously, Sinitsina had a broken foot.

“I already feel normal, the injury no longer bothers me. It was mentally difficult to come out after the injury, but I came out with new strength.

At first they told me it was a bruise, but I couldn’t walk on my foot. I went to get an x-ray and they told me again that I had a bruise. They advised me to sit for six days and then go on the ice. But the pain never went away. I went to the radiologist and he already told me that it was not a bruise, but a fracture. It turns out that the traumatologist didn’t notice the fracture, he didn’t look. It turned out that I was training while my fracture was already healing. Then I gradually recovered. But I still fell after many jumps. Only a week and a half ago, finally, nothing bothered me and nothing hurt me, ”reports the correspondent of , reporting Sinitsina’s words.
