China News Service Client, Beijing, April 6 (Reporter Xing Rui) In the early morning of the 6th, Chinese women's volleyball player Zhu Ting updated her personal social media again after nearly two months.
She posted pictures of her recovery after surgery, and wrote: "Surgery, gypsum board, big protective gear, small protective gear, focus on recovery, feel progress."
In the photo, Zhu Ting's wrist has gone from being padded with gypsum board and wrapped by a thick bandage to only wrapped around a wrist bandage.
After the successful operation, Zhu Ting made a lot of progress in the recovery from the injury.
Fans have also left messages under her social media, hoping that she can return to the team as soon as possible.
As a world-class main attacker, Zhu Ting's every move has attracted the attention of fans.
I still remember that in the Shaanxi National Games last year, Zhu Ting joined the Henan Women's Volleyball Team. Although she did not play, she was still the focus of public opinion outside the game.
After that, Zhu Ting almost disappeared from public view.
How is Zhu Ting's wrist injury?
When to have surgery?
Facing the concerns of the outside world, she chose to move forward silently outside the Internet.
In fact, fans who are familiar with the Chinese women's volleyball team know that Zhu Ting's wrist injury has a long history.
Earlier, according to An Jiajie, the current head coach of Shandong women's volleyball team, as early as 2017, when Zhu Ting was studying abroad, Zhu Ting injured her wrist by accidentally "pushing" on the ground, which left the root of the disease.
Since then, the wrist injury has become a "time bomb" buried in Zhu Ting.

During the 2019 Club World Cup, when Zhu Ting played on behalf of the Tianjin team, the wrist injury showed signs of recurrence.
But even with injuries, Zhu Ting still insisted on training and competition.
In 2019, she led the Chinese women's volleyball team to defend the World Cup with 11 consecutive victories.
After the World Cup, Zhu Ting entered the preparations for the Tokyo Olympics non-stop.
Originally thought that after the Olympic Games, Zhu Ting would have enough time to heal.
But the Tokyo Olympics suddenly announced the postponement, disrupting Zhu Ting's plan.
Lang Ping once said in an interview: "We counted the time at the time, and the doctor said it was too late, so we could only treat conservatively. Moreover, the wrist is very important for volleyball players, and the requirements for surgery and postoperative rehabilitation are very high, so we weighed it again and again. , for the Olympics, conservative treatment is still needed.”

Because of the wrist injury, Zhu Ting's performance in the Tokyo Olympics was obviously "restricted".
She once told a reporter from Xinhua News Agency: "The influence of the wrist is also quite large, and some balls are so painful that they can't exert force at all." In the case of Zhu Ting's injury and failure to play at a high level, the Chinese women's volleyball team finally regretted stopping. group matches.
After the Olympic Games, Zhu Ting's surgery was also put on the agenda.
In November last year, Zhu Ting revealed that her healing plan was progressing step by step.
"With regard to the wrist rehabilitation program, the requirements on the movement, confrontation and angle of the wrist on the volleyball court are much higher than those in daily life. Therefore, special care must be taken when choosing an experienced doctor and specific treatment plan. Coupled with the impact of the epidemic, there are many things that need to be considered and prepared in all aspects." Zhu Ting said in an interview with Xinhua News Agency.

While waiting for the surgery, Zhu Ting will post some videos on social media teaching children to play ball.
Some people speculate: Is Zhu Ting going to retire?
Is this preparing for post-retirement transition?
Faced with these questions, Zhu Ting expressed her plans for her future career: "Preparing to play two more Olympic Games is my expectation for myself, and it is also an attitude as a professional athlete. Playing and taking time to guide children are not in conflict. I like volleyball, I am willing to play, and if conditions permit, I am willing to keep playing, and I am willing to work hard for this goal.”
In the second half of this year, the Hangzhou Asian Games and the Women's Volleyball World Championships will start one after another. I look forward to "ZHUper" recovering from his injuries as soon as possible and returning to the Chinese women's volleyball team!
