Cody Simpson Reveals Vocal Cord Injury Update

Cody Simpson has given fans an update on his health after revealing a serious haemorrhage on his vocal cords.

The Aussie singer, 29, took to his Instagram Story on Tuesday to reveal that, while he is recovering, he is not out of the woods yet.

He shared a clip that showed him, complete with a face mask, sitting in a doctor's office. 

While waiting for his appointment, a nervous Cody flashed the camera a 'fingers crossed' gesture as he awaited an update from doctors. 

He followed this with another slide revealing that, while he was on the mend, surgery was 'looking likely'. 

'Okay. She's healed a lot but needs more time,' Cody wrote.

'The haemorrhage is gone but there's a big damaged blood vessel on the underside of my right vocal cord.'

Cody added that doctors had ordered 'complete silence' for a week, and will then assess if he needs to go under the knife.

'We are doing another week of complete silence and praying for a miracle heal. Send me your love,' he wrote. 

'We will then make a decision on surgery which is a longer recovery process BUT also reduces the risk of further complications.' 

Cody continued: 'In the meantime... don't know how long this recovery journey is going to be yet or whether surgery will go ahead, but it's looking likely.'     

It comes after Cody revealed he was forced to temporarily step away from his singing career earlier this month.

He took to Instagram to share a photo of himself hooked up to an EKG monitor as he opened up about the full extent of what he's been dealing with behind the scenes. 

'Hey guys. I originally thought I could keep this private but it's time I share what I've been going through. Just over a month ago we discovered a serious haemorrhage on one of my vocal cords,' Cody began.
