Nollywood actress Damilola Adegbite recently took to Instagram to explain the reason behind her current use of a neck brace. In a detailed caption, she revealed, "This is me after undergoing physiotherapy and feeling harassed and in considerable pain. For more than a year, I've been experiencing intense pain in my neck, literally. When the pain strikes, I'm incapacitated for days."

I have been on the strongest of pain killers for too long. They numb the pain for a bit and it’s back to business as usual. And of course with neck pain, comes migraines. It has been hell. I started physiotherapy over a week ago and I have noticed the pain is less. I have only taken a pain killer once since then.

If you know me well, this is a big deal! I am not supposed to lift weights for at least 3 months or do any kind of strenuous activities. This part is so hard for me but I’m determined to do anything to get rid of the pain. In the mean time, I have to wear this beautiful neck fashion accessory a couple of hours a day, so if you see me outside with it, don’t be afraid. Lol

All in all, I’m grateful. Whatever we are going through, it could be much worse. When you hit rock bottom, the only way to go is up”



In her explanation, Damilola Adegbite mentioned that she wasn’t mean to do any strenuous activity, including lifting weights for the next three month, and she stated that it would be hard for her, but she would do anything for the pain to go away. Her concerns about weight lifting are understandable because, she is a fitness enthusiast, who constantly visits the gym, and shared her workout routine online. Damilola Adegbite’s amazing physique is a testament to her dedication to living a healthy lifestyle.

Wishing you speedy recovery.
