After Car accident of Prince Philip: doctors worry about the health of the 97-year-olds
After his car accident, Prince Philip, the 97-year-old husband of Queen Elizabeth II (92), seems to be doing well in the circumstances. Nevertheless, he will be closely monitored by doctors in the coming days. Because they are worried, there could be delayed symptoms. As the "Mirror" reported, they should fear especially internal bleeding.
"You have to keep an eye on him overnight, because the risk is in the next 24 to 48 hours," Dr. Nick Scriven, President of the Society for Acute Medicine, quoted. "This is not an insignificant event for a 97-year-old."
As Buckingham Palace announced on Thursday, Prince Philip was involved in a car accident in the afternoon near the Royal Manor Sandringham in County Norfolk. According to the report of the British broadcaster "BBC" happened the crash around 15 clock (16 clock German time).
As "Daily Online" further reports, the prince, who himself was behind the wheel, was blinded by the sun. The 97-year-old should have been "conscious, but very shocked and shaken" after the collision. He was immediately taken back to Sandringham for medical treatment.
