The Al Hilal star underwent surgery for his anterior cruciate ligaments and meniscus injuries in his left knee. After the surgery, Neymar is recovering well but is undergoing heavy rehabilitation. According to reports, Neymar passes electricity to deal with muscle weakness after his surgery.

The device is named Crescent Star, which activates his muscles using electric impulses. It will assist in recovering muscle mass and regaining its size. Post-surgery, there was a decrease in muscle size and strength, which is the main reason electricity is being used, according to reports. The medical team aims for a stable and quick recovery as soon as possible.

The ACL is the part of the knee that holds the joint together and allows proper leg movement. Meanwhile, the meniscus acts like a shock observer and helps the leg bone handle the body weight, according to medical experts. Neymar’s injury refrains him from placing weight on his left knee. Even though treatment has been successful until now, doctors expect him to take some time to recover.
