Usher Shares Update On Justin Bieber’s Health Amid Ramsay Hunt Syndrome Diagnosis
If you recall, Justin Bieber recently decided to postpone his ‘Justice’ world tour after disclosing that he had Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, which caused facial paralysis.
Following his diagnosis, Justin revealed in a video he posted on Instagram that he had facial paralysis.
He said at the time: “As you can probably see from my face, I have this syndrome called Ramsay Hunt and it is from this virus that attacks the nerve in my ear and my facial nerves, and has caused my face to have paralysis.
“As you can see this eye is not blinking,” Justin added, “I can’t smile on this side of my face.”
The ‘Peaches’ hitmaker went on to say he had been doing facial exercises to try and regain movement, but told fans it would take time to recover.
Justin is now set to resume his Justice World Tour at Lucca Summer Festival, Italy on July 31st, which will kick off his string of European festivals before continuing his international shows.
