Here’s what Angelica Panganiban shared about her condition.
Kapamilya actress Angelica Panganiban shares in a vlog an update about her battle with painful bone disease.
Last year, actress Angelica Panganiban opened up about her disease which was discovered after she gave birth. In her vlog, she shared about her condition with the people and she received prayers for her fast recovery.
Angelica has Avascular Necrosis. This is a condition characterized by temporary or permanent loss of blood supply to the bone resulting in bone death and bone collapse.
The symptoms started to emerge during her 6th month in her pregnancy. She felt pain her hips but she could specifically pinpoint the exact location of the pain as she could feel it in her back, legs, hips, and buttocks.
There was a time when she asked why it had to happen at a time when her dreams are just starting to come true. She wants to enjoy the things she once dreamed of that is why she is seeking several ways to treat this. She is trying the more conservative approach for this treatment.
In her new vlog, after being productive whole day such as sending Bean to school, cooking the whole day, taking her to the park, and doing pilates, she can already feel the pain. She cannot walk straight after doing these and her physical movements is limited because of her condition.
What she currently does is pilates for her condition.
“Mayroon na talagang limit ‘yung hips ko, legs ko, likod ko. Parang ilang steps lang siya. Noon nakaka-ten thousand steps ako. Ngayon, suwerte na kapag naka-one thousand steps ako,” she said in the video.
She is hopeful for her recovery as she wants to avoid doing the hip replacement surgery.
