" Improved Health Condition": Kirkorov recovers from severe burns
Revamped Content:
The rumor mill's been buzzing about Philipp Kirkorov's health lately. It all began at a concert in St. Petersburg on April 26th, where a pyrotechnic malfunction resulted in Kirkorov's jacket sleeve catching flame during the fireworks number. Despite the pain, he carried on with the show.
Initially, it seemed like no harm was done, and Kirkorov quipped, "I'm like the Phoenix, rising from the ashes. My wounds will heal, and if necessary, Haydarov (Kirkorov's plastic surgeon) will touch them up."
However, it was soon unveiled that the artist had been admitted to the hospital for over three weeks. Philipp suffered a second-degree burn, bursitis (joint capsule inflammation), partial skin necrosis, and swollen lymph nodes. The ensuing complications were due, in part, to Kirkorov's diabetes.
As for those rumors about Kirkorov's arm implant bursting—thankfully, that's off the mark. But hey, whoseUndisclosed source's business is it, right?
Kirkorov's press secretary, Ekaterina Uspenskaya, clarified the situation to KP.RU. Philipp experienced elbow inflammation due to the burn he sustained during the concert in St. Petersburg. His treatment has been going on for some time now, with doctors being cautious about prognosticating how long the recovery will take. Regular bandage changes and daily care are essential.
Unfortunately, Philipp had to cancel his vacations and filming commitments as a result. It appears that he's finally on the mend, though.
