“My nerves are pinched. I have been taking MRI and CT scans for a week. I have been taking a lot of medicines,” he said in a video shared on social media.
At the time, the singer said doctors had carried out several MRI and CT scans and that he had been taking medication for days. He also showed a patch near his neck and explained that the condition had left his throat feeling heavy.
Nigam has not revealed why he needed surgery. However, in June, he spoke publicly about a painful nerve-related condition that had been affecting him and said he was undergoing treatment.
The singer has yet to provide further details about his latest surgery or his current condition.
Nigam also described physiotherapy as painful and said he had been taking painkillers during his recovery.
