Olaf Pollack, new member of the German T-Mobile team is currently undergoing medical treatment for a knee inflammation after having to stop training at the team camp in Mallorca. The talented sprinter told Cyclingnews last week that the pain in his knee caused him to return to Germany after one week of the training camp to see various specialists.
The former Gerolsteiner rider now knows the origin of his problem, explaining, "Part of the muscle got squeezed in the knee joint, causing an inflammation called the 'Plica syndrome', which leads to infected cartilage tissue."
