Ruru Madrid says hamstring injury is only partial tear: 'Magbabalik po ako nang mas mabilis!'

Ruru Madrid is on the road to recovery after getting hospitalized for a hamstring injury. On social media, the “Lolong: Pangil ng Maynila” star shared an update about his health condition after test results came on Wednesday. “Maraming salamat po sa inyong pagmamahal at pag-aalala.

Sa awa ng Diyos, lumabas na po ang resulta kanina—Grade 1 and 2 strain lang po, ibig sabihin ay 2-3 weeks lang ang recovery at may partial tear lang,” Ruru said. “To God be the glory! Magbabalik po ako nang mas mabilis,” he added. Ruru was rushed to the hospital on Monday after t earing his hamstring while taping for “Lolong.



” After doing an MRI test, the doctors then confirmed he had pulled his hamstring. According to Mayo Clinic, hamstring muscles are a group of three muscles located at the back of the thigh, running from the hip to just below the knee. These muscles play a crucial role in knee flexion and hip extension, allowing for movements such as walking, running, and jumping.
