The medical report reports that the footballer
"was discharged from a sanatorium, retiring to his private home to continue with relative rest
. "
That is to say, the Chilean must limit his usual physical activity to the maximum and avoid all types of efforts, which today disqualifies him from training alongside his teammates and, even more so, from playing a complete game. However, after such a dramatic situation,
he knows that he should not rush the recovery
.
"The medical staff of our Professional Staff, headed by Dr. Hugo Montenegro, wants to thank all the staff of the Platense Medical Institute and the Fleni Institute, for the professionalism and human quality demonstrated in the care of Javier Altamirano, who is already recovered and among us"

The club's initial report indicated that Altamirano had suffered a thrombosis of the superior longitudinal sinus of the brain.
ClarĂn
consulted with Dr. Facundo RodrĂguez, coincidentally a neurosurgeon at Fleni, who explained the pathology.
"Thrombosis is basically an occlusion in the sinus due to a thrombus. Just as a heart attack is generated when an artery is obstructed, here what happened to Altamirano is that the superior longitudinal sinus suffered an obstruction," graphed
the neurosurgeon in an extensive explanation.
Last Saturday, Estudiantes had issued a statement that brought peace of mind and hope to Pincha supporters and Argentine soccer fans in general: Altamirano would leave intensive care to continue his treatment in a common room.
Finally, this Wednesday he was discharged.
According to the newspaper El DĂa de La Plata, Altamirano was awake since Sunday night and in good spirits after receiving the support of his family.
His pregnant wife had to be treated the same Sunday for a nervous breakdown
and her mother traveled urgently from Chile the Tuesday after her son fainted.
