Ronnie Coleman is an enigma in the bodybuilding world. The 8x Mr. Olympia faced a lot of setbacks due to his back pain. Coleman, while building an enviable physique, has gone through more than 13 surgeries, which included two hip surgeries as well. However, this did not stop him from pursuing bodybuilding. Over the years, excruciating pain from all the surgeries has taken a toll on his body, and now it acts as an obstacle for him to walk properly. Therefore, he decided to get stem cell treatment and other forms of treatment along with it. 

The bodybuilding legend mentioned that inclining to stem cell therapy has helped him to maintain a sound health. He also stated that the treatment has proven somewhat beneficial for his back and neck. Recently, Coleman uploaded an Instagram post about getting treatment for his back pain. The 59-year-old is not leaving any stone unturned to get rid of the pain completely and that is why he even travels abroad.
