The former two-time heavyweight champion, Mike Tyson, 56 is going through some health issues. The champ, who once garnered his fame on the base of physical power in the world of boxing, suddenly became a storyline after his pictures from Miami International Airport went viral on Tuesday. ‘The Baddest Man on Planet’ was sitting on a wheelchair with a large walking stick.

This unfortunate news made his fans curious. Everyone wanted to know how the legend, who was in rumors for his comeback fight against Jake Paul, reached this stage.

Reports claimed that he was dealing with a ‘sciatica flare-up‘ and is on medication.

Meanwhile, a doctor filmed a video and tried to explain in detail what happened to ‘Iron Mike’ and what actually ‘sciatica flare-up is. According to him, it is basically a broad term for nerve-type symptoms or nerve pain.

“Going down our b*tt or our legs the problem is usually coming from the lumbar spine, so if you have a herniated disc or if you have like a bone spur something can be compressing that lumbar nerve in the lumbar spine. But the symptoms go down the legs. We call that radicular symptoms typically the treatment for this is giving it some time anti-inflammatories. We can try physical therapy, but if those things don’t work sometimes, you need injections to the area versus surgery, “ doctor explained.
