Maharashtra Transport Minister Pratap Baburao Sarnaik has given an encouraging health update on former Indian cricketer Vinod Kambli. The minister assured the public that Kambli is doing fine and that he will soon recover fully. Kambli was admitted to Akruti Hospital near Bhiwandi on Saturday, December 21. According to reports, he is responding well to treatment for a urinary tract infection (UTI).
Medical Condition & Treatment Progress
Kambli’s health worsened earlier this month when he suffered from an extreme urinary infection that resulted in pus collecting in his bladder. Doctors had decided to conduct an MRI on Kambli to better analyze his condition. However, the procedure was postponed as he developed a fever on Tuesday. According to a doctor speaking to PTI, a final decision on conducting the MRI will be taken after his fever subsides.
MRI Reveals Clots In Brain
The MRI after a series of preliminary medical examinations revealed the presence of clots in Kambli’s brain. This added layer of complexity has made the doctors cautious about proceeding with non-invasive procedures until his condition stabilizes further.
