In August, ÖSV ski cross athlete Leonie Lussnig - still 18 years old at the time - was diagnosed with a slipped disc. Now, almost four months later, there is finally some good news for the young athlete from Vorarlberg. It looks like she will get away without an operation (for the time being).

"I've never been as nervous as I was before the appointment," confessed Leonie Lussnig. On Tuesday morning, the skier from the Oberland region went back to see doctor Michael Gabl at the Kettenbrücke Sanatorium in Innsbruck to discuss the next steps following her slipped disc in August with the spine expert - Gabl has already operated on Hannes Reichelt, among others.

Only cautious recovery training for the time being
"The good news is that the situation has improved," the 19-year-old breathed a sigh of relief. "That's a huge relief for me." In plain language: Lussnig can now start a cautious recovery training program. "If it doesn't become acute again, I can go skiing - if the pain comes back, I'll have to have an operation."
