Tiger Woods To Take More Time Off For A Neck Injury.
Wednesday, 19th May, 2010
After an MRI on Wednesday in Orlando, Fla., it was determined that Tiger Woods has an inflamed facet joint in his neck.
When the facet joints are inflamed, it causes pain in the affected area as well as headaches and difficulty rotating the head.
"I want to thank everyone for their caring and concern," Woods said. "I now need to take care of this condition and will return to playing golf when I'm physically able."
Physical therapy, including soft-tissue massage, rest and anti-inflammatory medicine will be used to treat the injury.
The prognosis for Woods is a full recovery, although a return date to competitive golf is contingent on how quickly the condition heals. The layoff is not expected to be extensive but can vary.
