So we went in to wash it out and close it with stitches and a small JP drain to allow the drainage to flow," the 99-time World Cup winner described.
She said she was incredibly grateful for all the help at the hospital and would be in touch with further updates. "The biggest annoyance right now is that I can't make it to the finish to watch my teammates race in person in Beaver Creek, but I'll be watching and cheering on TV!" promised Shiffrin.
