Ric Flair had blood clot in lung during recent health complications

WWE Hall Of Famer Ric Flair is a legend in the world of professional wrestling and is universally loved. He was recently hospitalized, but he was able to pull through and made a recovery.

 


 

While speaking to Wrestling Inc, Flair revealed that his most recent time at the hospital was due to a blood clot that was in his leg for many years but reached his lung in some way. The clot had to be dealt with before he could have had his scheduled heart surgery.

“They found a blood clot in my leg, which I’ve had for years. But a little piece had gone into my lung and they got rid of that. So I spent three days there cleaning it and I had fluid on my heart from all of the anesthesia from the three other surgeries.”

“Then they fixed me and it was like night and day. The next day I knew I was as good as I had ever been. Prior to February, I was running at Level 7 on a Treadmill – that’s how good I felt.”

Thankfully, Flair is better than ever and says he can run on the treadmill once more. We hope that he does not have to undergo surgery again.
