4+ Years Of Constant Pain…

Marsai Martin shared a brave Instagram story Saturday (Dec. 10), revealing that she went under the knife to get rid of a “large” cyst, that’s been giving her constant pain for more than four years. However, the surgery was successful.

In the story, Marsai shared a black-and-white video from the hospital, and revealed: If you missed my live, long story short, I had surgery for my large ovarian cyst that gave me constant pain for 4+ years. I really don’t remember any of this sh*t because of the anaesthesia, lol. But I will say that I am very grateful to have family and educators by my side in support of this process.”

If you aren’t aware, an ovarian cyst is a “solid or fluid-filled sac or pocket (cyst) within on the surface of an ovary,” as described by the Mayo clinic. Doctors suggest that even though some cysts disappear in a few months, they may cause complications if they don’t. And well, they surely are cancerous.

Listen To Your Body, Health Is Wealth…

The “Little” star urged her fans to listen to their bodies, especially young women who may be going through the same thing or have a difficult menstrual cycle. “You are never alone, listen to your body, it always shows you signs.
