Barbara D’Urso Will Keep Dancing on ‘Ballando’ After Shoulder Injury, Wearing a Shoulder Brace

Doctors documented a traumatic left‑shoulder injury with conservative rehab prescribed, leaving her participation to hinge on week‑to‑week recovery.

Overview

  • After pain worsened during the Nov. 29 live show, D’Urso underwent an orthopedic check at Sant’Andrea in Rome.
  • The medical report cited an “evento traumatico distrattivo della spalla sinistra” and prescribed cautious mobilization and infiltrative therapy.
  • D’Urso posted from rehearsals with partner Pasquale La Rocca, saying she will compete Saturday wearing a shoulder brace.
  • La Rocca said the choreography will be adapted to her condition and noted the shoulder issue had been present for days before the live aggravation.
  • The schedule tightens the timeline, with the repechage on Dec. 6 and the final on Dec. 20 should she progress.
