Scourton - Collapsed Lung, Week-to-Week

[RJK]

[Panthera onca]

It's really not a,terribly serious injury. Thus, week to week.

WTH!!! That sounds horrible; prayers to this young man for a full recovery

The spectre of a preseason injury is always looming. You can't take plays during these games for granted. Now no telling how this all works out.

It would be nice if we don't have new players with promise get hurt and lose valuable development time.

Not being able to breath, feeling like you are suffocating is in fact a serious injury especially when you job relys on cardio.   Ive never heard of a mild collapsed lung but it may be a thing I just never heard of it.

 

we never can catch a damn break

Maybe not "terribly serious," but it can take 6-8 weeks to fully heal according to the web, depending upon the severity and type of injury. Hopefully it's not cracked ribs or anything that caused it.

lol typical Panthers and the injury curse.  Change the team name please.

I'm not surprised it ended up being something more severe than just simple overheating. When I am saw that he'd been taken to the hospital I was like... that's weird. I would assume they'd have everything they need there at team facilities to handle simple overheating. I mean, the treatment is basically to sit there and chill out, maybe get a hydration IV. That's about it.

I had a collapsed lung after surgery a couple years ago. It's no fun, but he shouldn't miss a ton of time.

The biggest thing might be getting his conditioning back once he's cleared to play.

[frankw]

I don't even know where to begin with this one. Bizarre.

[Icege]

Oh damn. That sucks.

Glad the team got him taken care of and erred on the side of caution.

Look for him to be put in PUP and be out the first half of the season 

Canales literally said in his presser a guy with a similar injury played the next week.

It's 3 weeks until Week 1.

Pointless fear mongering
