[Charania] Congenital heart defect was the cause of Bronny James’ cardiac arrest on July 24 and there is confidence he will make a full recovery and return to basketball in the very near future, per statement from James family spokesperson.

    Bronny is very lucky to be getting the absolute best medical advice/treatments. Hope he gets healthy ASAP and hopefully play with Bron sooner rather than later

    can’t wait for all of us high school educated redditors to give our opinions on this.

    If any of you say vaccine you are getting socked in the head

    Congenital means present since birth for the people who have no idea.

    What does genitals have to do with a heart attack

    Happy that the kid will most likely be able to resume his career, what happened Reddit “doctors” I thought it was myocarditis 🧐🧐🧐

    Think about the number of people walking around with this not knowing it’s there. Fucking hell.

    Jokes aside, this seems like great news if it’s actually treatable.

    I had a theory that there was something health related when schools weren’t exactly all over him for recruiting him.

    Well this kinda proved it

    assuming this means he’ll need open-heart surgery, which makes me question their definition of “very near future”

    Didn’t Shareef O’Neal have to sit out a full year after his surgery?

    Hope this gets all the antivax conspiracy morons to shut the f up

    So I’m no cardiologist but I’m a medical person and depending on the abnormality, he may need surgery +/- rehab/medication and a pretty regimented testing schedule with experts before he’s cleared for high intensity cardiac activity like basketball (especially at a professional level). No, he didn’t have a congenital defect from the vaccine because congenital means some piece of his cardiac anatomy is weird that happened when he was developing as an embryo/fetus.

    I’d love for docs/nurses/etc who do cardio stuff for a living to give more info to dispel some misinformation that could be going around.

    I wish I knew what kind of defect could be treated such that a full recovery is made, and what that treatment is

    As someone born with a congenital hard defect myself, I find it shocking this wasn’t detected.

    Low key this is why family histories are important. Lebron doesn’t know his father and something like this could’ve been present on that side of the family. Ask your parents about health issues in the family so you can tell your doctors!

    You mean it’s not because of the COVID vaccines as suggested by idiots like Musk?!
