On SBS 'My Ugly Baby', which aired on the 28th, Lee Dong-gun's illness, who recently visited the hospital due to his deteriorating physical condition, was revealed for the first time.
On this day, Lee Dong-gun was shown visiting a hospital, making everyone worried.
Lee Dong-gun was seen rubbing his eyes with a serious face, and his red eyes surprised everyone.
Lee Dong-gun even showed a full-body scan, and when he saw a doctor, he felt bloodshot and slightly less focused. But in severe cases, blood clots are also very severe and sensitive to light. I felt it was painful to see the light. In severe cases, he even suffered from a loss of vision in one eye. He confessed that he had been taking medicine for more than a year, making viewers worried.
The doctor said that the eye symptoms of this gun were actually just one of the symptoms of 'wetitis'.
Lee Dong-gun "But I develop this symptom once a month. So, you have to take additional antibiotics from the ophthalmology to calm down. I lived with almost no eye drops. It's a frustrating situation because it's been going on for a year."
The doctor said "Something is strange if uveitis keeps repeating. If uveitis is repeated, there is a possibility of some kind of ankylosing spondylitis."
Intestinal spondylitis is a disease that hardens when the spine is upright.
The doctor said "It is a rare incurable disease in which ankylosing spondylitis takes only 1% of Korea. The first symptom of ankylosing spondylitis is sometimes referred to as coating inflammation.'
In response, Lee Dong-gun "10 years ago, I felt like I was stabbing with an awl while sleeping. So it went on for three to four hours. At that time, I suspected a neck disc. So I did an MRI."
The doctor said "There is a ceiling joint that supports the upper body. But the left joint is worse than the right joint. It seems that it was quite inflamed, with levels 2 to 3 of arthritis. When these symptoms are combined, the symptoms are comprehensively judged, and if the body's inflammation is repeated, it can be diagnosed as ankylosing spondylitis. There are several genes that cause these inflammations. It is inherited genetically."
Lee Dong-gun is not genetically present in my family. I'm a rare one, and the doctor says "You must take care of it now because it's okay. We must keep up with our management" he explained.
In particular, Lee Dong-gun's mother said, "I want to be sick for her, because she does not know the cause and cannot be cured."I couldn't hide my sorrow.
The doctor said "The first thing you should avoid is alcohol and cigarettes. Sugar and flour should also be cut off. But vitamin C is good for inflammation."
