AceShowbiz - Justin Bieber has got candid about his latest health issue. The "Peaches" hitmaker, who previously announced that he has canceled his upcoming shows, revealed that he has been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt syndrome which caused him to experience partial face paralysis.
The 28-year-old came forward with his diagnosis through an Instagram video posted on Friday, June 10. "I wanted to update you guys on what's been going on. Obviously, as you can probably see from my face, I have, a, this syndrome called Ramsay Hunt syndrome," he said.
"It is from this virus that attacks the nerve in my ear and my facial nerves and has caused my face to have paralysis," the husband of Hailey Baldwin added. "As you can see, this eye is not blinking. I can't smile on this side of my face. This nostril will not move, so there's full paralysis on this side of my face."
"So for those who are frustrated by my cancellations of the next shows, I'm just physically, obviously, not capable of doing them," he continued. "This is pretty serious as you can see. I wish this wasn't the case but obviously my body is telling me I have to slow down. I hope you guys understand and I'll be using this time to just rest and relax and get back to 100 percent so I can do what I was born to do."
Justin went on to assure fans that he's "going to get better." He further explained, "I'm doing all these facial exercises to get my face back to normal and it will go back to normal. It's just time. We don't know how much time it will be but it's going to be okay. I have hope and I trust God. I trust that this is all for a reason and I'm not sure what that is right now, but in the meantime I'm going to rest."
Justin announced the postponement of his "Justice World Tour" on June 7. "I've done everything to get better but my sickness is getting worse," he lamented at that time. "My heart breaks that I will have to postpone these next few shows (doctors orders)."
