In a video posted on her Instagram profile, she said that, feeling no pain, she continued her life normally. However, she soon began to feel a lot of pain.
“I must have scratched it or touched it somewhere where there was bacteria and that bacteria got in and settled inside and caused a lot of damage. There was one day I woke up with a swollen elbow, a lot of pain, but I went to work normally. Halfway through the day, incredible pain,” he explained.
Lopes sought medical help and was admitted to the hospital. At the hospital, a specialist stressed that the situation required surgery. “I was examined by Dr. Cristian, who said, ‘Look, I think this is surgery. To be safe, I think we need to be more conservative. […] I wanted to take antibiotics and leave, but I had surgery, took antibiotics intravenously and am still in hospital,” the actor added.
He hopes to be discharged this Sunday. In the post he thanked the hospital professionals. “Sometimes life can stop us or physically put us in situations that teach us something. I’m learning!” he wrote.
