- Stina has a small fracture at the elbow which is treated with relief. I feel safe in the expertise Stina receives in Östersund and there are very good hopes that the healing will go well, says national team doctor Lykke Tamm.
The injury means that Nilsson cannot load his elbow and run with two poles in six weeks.
- It is no problem to carry out training but we have to be a little creative and find solutions so Stina can train but at the same time heal in the best way, says head coach Johannes Lukas.
The injury also means that Stina Nilsson will miss next week's Swedish Championships in roller biathlon in Dala Järna.
- Of course it feels very sad that the crash resulted in a fracture, but at the same time I feel incredibly grateful that I have such a good team around me. I will not forget that it is a fracture, but I already feel much better and believe in fast healing. Surely I have said that I have an exemplary good leak meat? says Nilsson in a press release.
