Kjetil Jansrud jumps Norwegian championships for severe back pain

Because of severe back pain & nbsp; Kjetil Jansrud & egrave; forced to miss the Norwegian national championships, started today with the downhill trials.

Back Pain & egrave; He appeared during the season just ended and & egrave; gradually worsened. The Azona interested & egrave; that of the lumbar vertebrae, which have much stress suffered during the 'winter enough to cause distortions. However, doctors do not want to operate Jansrud because & eacute; They fear that this might mean the end of his career for the 30 year old Norwegian champion. The medical staff is thinking, among other things, to a block of the nervous system in such a way that it is not in contact with the lower back cos & igrave; to diminish, hopefully, the pain.
