Vikas undergoes shoulder surgery

Vows to come back stronger from Olympic heartbreak
Indian boxer Vikas Krishan, whose Olympic campaign ended abruptly after a dislocated right shoulder caused an opening-round loss, has undergone a surgery to fix the injury which will keep him out of action for the next three months. The 29-year-old, who was competing in his third Olympics, was forced out early after “fighting with one hand” in the opening clash against Japan’s Sewon Okazawa. The surgery on his dislocated shoulder was performed at Mumbai’s Kokilaben Hospital by renowned surgeon Dr. Dinshaw Pardiwala, who operated and fixed a career-threatening shoulder injury that newly-crowned Olympic gold-winner Neeraj Chopra had suffered in 2019.More Related News
