Rakul Preet Singh shares health update after suffering back injury; says, “It’s a lesson learnt that please listen to your body”

On October 5, actor Rakul Preet Singh suffered a major back injury and has been on bed rest for the same. Rakul was doing her workout at her gym where she did an 80 kg deadlift without wearing a belt. This resulted in a spasm on her back. Despite this, she continued to shoot for De De Pyaar De 2 taking a muscle relaxant to fulfil her commitment. After 3 days of bearing the pain, Rakul visited the physios, causing trauma to her body wherein her L4, L5, and S1 nerves just jammed.

It’s been five days now since she’s recovering and it’s a slow and steady process. Now, the Yaariyaan actor is on her recovery and took to her Instagram stories where she dropped a video message. She is heard saying that she is on her way to recovery and suffered a spasm on her back. Rakul also urged her fans to listen to their bodies and not try to push them when it gives them a signal.

Rakul Preet Singh shares a video message about her back injury

“Hi, my lovely people. Well, here is a little health update. I did something very stupid. I did not listen to my body. Singh said. “I had a spasm, kept pushing it and it turned into a major injury, I’ve been on the bed for the last six days. I think it will take another week or say for me to fully recover; I really hope I recover faster than that because it is not easy for me to give in and rest. But, it is a lesson learnt that please listen to your body when it gives you signals. Don’t try to push. I thought that my mind was stronger than my body. It doesn’t always work like that. Thank you so much for all your wishes, especially the people who misses me. I will bounce back stronger.”
