Jim Ross Comments On Diverticulitis and Brock Lesnar's Surgery: "Lots of questions
regarding Brock Lesnar's colon surgery that occurred a few days ago. I
don't know the specific details, nor am I a doctor, but I have had
diverticulitis and surgery as a result of such.
"Surgery can be
done, as was mine, in a very evasive manner depending on the diagnosis
and severity of the diverticulitis. My particular case was extremely
serious because I disregarded the stomach aches and other symptoms too
long and continued to travel and work and my large intestine perforated
which caused additional issues with which I had to address. Other
surgery techniques for diverticulitis can come in the form of a much
less invasive, almost arthroscopic, surgery which makes small incisions
and allows one to heal quicker.
"From what I ascertain and I may be wrong, the less evasive surgery seems to be what Brock encountered.
"Nonetheless,
Brock's health is more important than his UFC career, or any career for
that matter, and he has seemingly done what is necessary to remove the
affected area from his colon."
