Body Coach Joe Wicks forced to stay in hospital on a drip due to infected hand

Body Coach star Joe Wicks had to stay overnight at hospital last night, due to suffering severe pain as a result of an infected hand.

The 33-year-old dad-of-one told fans he is set to go under-the-knife today, after being placed on a drip.

Addressing his fans, the star who is famous for giving PE lessons on YouTube, said: “They aren’t able to do the operation today, they have other patients in the queue.

“They are a bit slower with certain things so I’m staying tonight.

“They’re going to give me some nice morphine, and some antibiotics on the drip-a-roo. In the morning, hopefully first thing, I’ll be having the wires taken out.”

He added later: “I tell you what, this infection is no joke. I’ve had codeine up to my eyeballs. They gave me liquid morphine, but it ain’t taking the edge off it. It’s throbbing.”

“I’ve got a drip of liquid paracetamol. That is absolutely fantastic. Paracetamol IV saves the day for now, almost instant effect and on the pain.

“So glad I’m staying here tonight. I woke up all night last night as it was throbbing and pulsating like liquid hot magma.

“Thanks for all your well wishes. Gonna get a good night’s sleep I think.”

Joe initially had minor surgery on his hand in March, and until last month, he had been wearing a bandage, following an operation were wires were put in to his hand.

However, keen to continue with his bed to keep the nation fit and healthy, Joe has vowed the injury won’t prohibit his PE lessons, although he won’t be partaking in any push-ups.
