Konstantinos Karetsas Returns to Training After Brief Hospitalization With Circulatory Issues
It seems that Karetsas’s health issues last week were not serious.
Dortmund, Germany - Konstantinos Karetsas of Borussia Dortmund has returned to training following a brief hospitalization due to circulatory issues during last week's Champions League match against Villarreal. The 18-year-old Greek footballer was stretchered off the pitch and taken to the hospital, causing concern among Borussia Dortmund fans.
However, after a comprehensive examination, he was cleared to resume training with no serious health complications. Per Ruhr Nachrichten, Karetsas may be available to play against VfB Stuttgart this weekend. While there are speculations that he was simply dehydrated, it is important to remember that even moderate dehydration can cause serious side effects such as light-headedness and fainting.
As a reminder, professional athletes need to stay hydrated and maintain their electrolytes just like everyone else.
