00:00Doctor Lanzetti, what is the relationship between football medicine and physiotherapy, especially today at a conference in
00:08where we talk about footballer injuries, especially to the foot and ankle?
00:15Yes, definitely a fundamental role, very, very important. Today we were fortunate enough to organize this day in the press room.
00:25of the Olimpico, of the Olympic Stadium, focusing attention on the foot and ankle.
00:30Certainly in increasingly crowded calendars, seasons with an ever-increasing number of injuries, especially due to an increase in
00:39performances that the player, the footballer, but the player in his entirety, must do, to take into consideration and
00:46Understanding when a player is ready to return to the field is crucial.
00:51Different aspects come together, the orthopedic aspect, the rehabilitation aspect, the physiotherapy aspect, to understand not only when the player is
01:00recovered, but when he is ready and able to return to play, that is, to resume competitive activity on the field.
