Danny Thrall, 19, swimmer of Fordham University team, New York has to abstain from swimming. According to reports, he had an open heart surgery six weeks earlier. When the 6 foot 8 inches tall guy stepped into the pool to swim, he was not completely well. His chest muscles were still tight and aching. His face showed signs of pain while struggling to swim.
His present health conditions were suspected during a routine medical checkup at the university. His blood pressure was high. Thrall felt normal otherwise. He went for further medical examinations which showed his dangerously enlarged aorta and a slight leakage in a valve.
The doctors proclaimed a quick surgery for the replacement of aorta and a leaky valve with mechanical parts.
