Yuzuru is physically stronger than he looks. I remember he said before NHK that the doctor asked him to rest for at least one week, and then he could slowly go back to training. But the media reported that he needed 2-3 weeks to recover. It made me wonder perhaps that the doctor gave a longer timeline just to be cautious. So when he went back on ice earlier than the doctor’s suggested date (less than 2 weeks), it seemed like he didn’t listen to the doctor’s advice. But in fact, he did listen.
So I think that the doctor probably asked him to rest for 6 weeks again just to be cautious. He probably doesn’t need that many weeks of rest. I think he might stay in Japan for a few more days, so he can be monitored by doctors.
He is a smart boy. He is not as reckless as people think.
