According to her, on Tuesday, Navalny began to become numb. Before that, his back ached. He was examined by a local neurologist on Friday and given two ibuprofen tablets on Monday.

“That’s all. Of course, he didn’t have any better,” the lawyer said.

According to Mikhailov, the lawyers are currently next to the prison, but they are not allowed under the pretext of “regime measures”.

According to Navalny’s partner Leonid Volkov, the opposition could be in the prison hospital, but the administration wants to hide this fact.

On March 15, the general public learned that Navalny was in the Pokrov Prison in Vladimir Oblast.

On social networks that day, Navalni announced that he was “generally fine”.

On March 22, another tweet was published on behalf of the politician.

In it, he told about “favorite moments of the day” while in prison. There was no mention of Navalny’s health record.

Navalny, 44, was arrested on January 17 Moscow At Sheremetyevo airport after returning from Germany, where he recovered for more than four months after poisoning with the war substance “Novičok”.

Navalny believes that behind his poisoning is the Kremlin, which has denied the allegations.

The Federal Penitentiary Service explained Navalny’s detention by saying that Navalny had violated the terms of the suspended sentence imposed on him in 2014, and the court commuted it to a real prison sentence.

The arrest of Navalny in Russia sparked widespread protests, during which police detained about 11,000 people.
