The young star Nawaf Al Abed is a shining example for this talented and talented player in the field. In previous seasons, Al Hilal midfielder has been ranked among the most prominent stars of the Saudi league, as well as mainstay of the Saudi team through his tireless activity and his significant contribution to the victories won by Al Akhdar. Trump inclined their hand with opponents.
Recently, Al-Hilaly supporters and Saudi sports street were delighted with the young star's return to stroke the ball, especially during the Al-Ahly match in the Asian first leg match. of round 16, which earned them a blue double that allowed them to qualify for the quarterfinals before the return leg in Riyadh, after a long absence following an injury injury. The abdominal muscles have long suffered in recent years.
According to doctors specializing in the treatment of stadium wounds, this type of injury is the most dangerous of the player's career, which may result in the premature withdrawal of the ball from the age factor.
The memory of Al-Hilali is one of the most painful situations in which the captain and historical defender of Saudi Arabia, Saleh Al-Naima, announced his retirement at the age 31 years old for injuries of the same type.
Al Abed was forced to leave the ball for more than a year for reasons of injury. After returning to the stadiums, he was intermittent and deprived of many opportunities, including the 2018 World Cup in Russia, then the Asian Cup in the United Arab Emirates and many local and foreign Red Crescent matches.
Al-Abed has been complaining about this injury for a long time, and despite the long treatment program, he continues it from season to season. Upon his return last season, especially during his team's match against Al-Qadisiyah, the injury was renewed and forced him to miss again.
For his part, Dr. Saleh Al-Harthi, consultant in orthopedics and sports medicine and chairman of the medical commission of the Saudi Football Federation, supervisor of the medical staff of the Saudi national team and Sunni teams, aims at Al -Abed and his ability to overcome this difficult stage of his career. Personally, the player closest to me, I have known him for over 15 years, and I know very well that he has a personal challenge and a great ambition that makes him sacrifice a lot to be able to attend important moments and events. decisive games, and honestly, his injury did not follow the course of the natural injury, Its a lot before and after the operation, and always insist on the pursuit of stadiums and refuses to give up ".
Al-Harthy said, "God willing, Al-Abed will never have to retire because of this injury, but he needs an integrated medical team and is urgently rebadessing the situation and is developing a treatment plan to make Saudi football one of its most influential and outstanding players. "
He continued, "If we talk in detail about Nawaf al-Abed's injury, I started a process of releasing connective muscle tendons in France, then there was inflammation at the site of the operation, which was disrupted the rehabilitation phase, which was aimed at keeping the tendons away from adhesions, and this abnormal course of the case, There was a crucial change in the course of treatment and as a result, Nawaf badly needed an integrated system specialties and infrastructure ready to implement a plan that addresses real-time developments and adaptation of the treatment program, in order to achieve the best results and allow the player to recover and to rehabilitate.
He continued: "Compulsory rest and the multiplicity of treatment centers after the operation have had a negative impact, and the footballer usually needs to continue his treatment as part of a well-defined plan to recover completely".
Dr. Al-Harthy said, "Injuries in general, including those in Al-Abed, although treated by specialized practitioners at home and abroad, are still practiced individually, in the absence of an almost complete system integrated in all its branches to treat cases of sports medicine in general and trauma in general. In particular, I mean that the injury itself requires a treatment plan with predefined time intervals depending on the player once the injury occurs, and aimed at an accurate diagnosis, then a mental and physical preparation for surgery and surgical procedures with clear details for the player and the entire team to modify the rehabilitation program, as was previously the case. Agra "This is a physical and then surgical physical rehabilitation followed by field rehabilitation and then the normal body restoration program."
He added, "We also do not forget the step back to the exercise followed by the restoration of skills and retraining as much as possible to be done, and exercises to prevent injury. and avoid subsequent rehearsals, to finish with the player's return to exercise his skills and planning within the team and his prior roles unreservedly. " He continued, "There are a number of cases that I have examined surgically during the last period. I think it was possible to avoid the complications and the need to review the operation surgically if the surgeon had given details of what had been done in the process for the rest of the year. team and adjusted the rehabilitation program accordingly. Dissemination of a standardized rehabilitation protocol transmitted in any case by qualified people, which may not be useful in some cases, in addition to the lack of documented professional communication with the team of treatment with a unified goal to search for and update the lesion in a positive and negative way, and then rephrase the treatment plan to achieve the recovery and return of many wounded in their time. "
For his part, Shaker Al-Abed, father of the player Nawaf Al-Abed, defended his son in his battle against the injury and said, "I am surprised that there are rumors that Al-Abed would remain under rehabilitation and so on. We continue to suffer him and keep him away from the ball. What we can until Nawaf returns, and I am my son every day, especially for everything related to his injury, his training and the progress of treatment. In general, all the grace of Mehsud … In the end, we hope that Nawaf will return to his time, and that God suffice for the wicked wounds that deprived him of every player's dream, which is to participate in the World Cup, which greatly affected his psyche.
For his part, Mohammed Al-Deayea, star of Saudi club and al-Hilal club, said: "Al-Abed stands out from all players by his fight and his seriousness, whether at training or in match, which is the quality of the players who harm their injuries.
He continued, "He was supposed to make a special program to keep this star, because he really needed it, and everyone knows how he helped to qualify the team for the Cup final. World and has made many tournaments for his Red Crescent team. I think that he did not find the technical staff who would help him. Make a special program.
He continued, "I remember that he had scored one of the crucial goals in the Gulf, and that the joy of celebrating celebrated the somerault's way and that he was there." repeated after that. I spoke to him and I advised him not to repeat it, even if he could control it, but the force and difficulty of the movements caused fatigue. He was exercised and could have a negative impact on him. He continued: "Malik Moaz and Salem Al-Dosari are also making this move. Many players were injured in the area below the abdominal muscles. Some of them returned to the stadiums and others withdrew.
Al-Deayea concluded by stating, "I always say that Al-Abed is a mbad demand, a special and important player, and that this type of player must be offered a special program to preserve it." Saad Saad Mubarak, former player of the Saudi team and Al-Hilal club: "Nawaf Al-Abed is one of the exceptional talents who have pbaded the Saudi ball. He is a player characterized by the gambling sector, unflinching pay and great confidence. We find him in difficult times and he played an important role in our qualification at the World Cup.
He added: "Everyone knows that stadium injuries tire and exhaust the player, even if he adheres to the treatment program and to complete rest."
"Injuries to the lower abdominal muscles are both tiring and chronic, and connective muscle (peritoneum) is also known to be an injury that requires rest and physical therapy for at least six months." He continued, "I've heard that Abed was not engaged in the rehabilitation stages, physiotherapy has complementary things like sleep and food, like the injury that Nawaf has need to rest and I think it will take longer to fully recover, so that the injury does not come back. "
National coach Jbadim Al-Harbi, who had previously oversaw the training of Nawaf Al-Abed when he was a player in the Al-Hilal youth team, said, "I think the post-operation rehabilitation program is one of the most important steps of the player's equipment. Rehabilitation must be good and organized and at the same time help the player to cross. Regularity in the program ".
He continued, "Abed is one of the best players on the Asian continent and we have seen the impact of his absence on the Saudi team and on Crescent and we must preserve this quality of players."
"What sets Al-Abed apart is that he has a great ambition and that he still likes to be a key player.He hates losing and is fighting for victory in all his matches."
