Amitabh Bachchan has revealed that he urgently needs surgery because he has two hernias which are causing pain.
The actor, who has been avoiding surgery for a while claimed that the hernias cause him severe pain when he moves.
“There are now two urgent hernia in the lower abdomen which have swelled up dangerously and cause me problems,” Bachchan posted on his blog Bigb.bigadda.com.
“Sharp pains when I stand for too long or walk too much. During dance and action scenes there is huge pain and I counter that with a hernia belt which is temporary and not really a cure.
“So the doctors have been after me for a surgery, well two actually on either side of the abdomen and I have been avoiding it because of my busy schedule. But I shall have to take care of it now.
“Because of the several times that the stomach has been opened up, there are lesions, and they at times stick and cause problems.”
