Law and Order:SVU star, Mariska Hargitay -- who has been battling a serious injury -- was back on set today.
The actress, who has been hospitalized twice now because of a collapsed lung, told OK! she was feeling "good" as she returned to work.
Mariska, who suffered the pneumothorax -- or partially collapsed lung -- in a sledding accident in early January, was picked up from her house at 9am on March 23 and she filmed for several hours in New York with co-star Chris Meloni.
On-set sources revealed that they were working on a scene in which the partners help a young mother, played by special guest star Hilary Duff to find her missing child.
It was the first day of an eight-day shoot.
The mother of one looked in great shape on location in the East Village, and when OK! asked her how she was feeling, she told us: "Good, thank you."
The star was first in hospital in early January and underwent two operations, but then came back to work on January 26 -- only to end up back in the hospital at the beginning of March for tests.
