Health Update on TV Presenter Yuri Nikolaev
After his hip surgery, Yuri Nikolaev began to experience new health concerns. Mash, a Telegram channel, reported that doctors diagnosed a thrombosis in his lower leg and are actively working to restore blood flow.
The 76-year-old entertainer recently had his femur fixed with a metal rod. Since the operation, medical observers have noted signs of improvement: weakness and pain have decreased, and he has shown progress, though mobility remains limited to moving around the ward with the aid of a walker for now.
Mash reported that the patient spent two days in intensive care after the New Year holiday. The channel claimed he broke his hip when he tripped over furniture at home and required emergency surgery, after which he was moved to intensive care. As information about the hospitalization circulated, Nikolaev had already been transferred to a regular ward.
The same channel also noted that a Bollywood star was hospitalized after being attacked with a knife, a detail attributed to Mash.
Hip injuries that require fixation with metal rods are common in older patients, and physicians in such cases focus on restoring blood flow, reducing pain, and gradually rebuilding mobility. In Nikolaev’s situation, doctors have emphasized careful monitoring while the body recovers, and the walker remains a necessary tool for daily movement as strength returns.
As the case continues to unfold, observers should treat the information from Mash as evolving and subject to change with new medical updates. The family and doctors have not issued public comments at this time, and reports may vary as new details emerge.
