Travis Barker says his recent hospitalization was prompted by numbness in his arm, hand, and fingers. The Blink-182 drummer shared that the symptoms lead to medical treatment, including surgery, to address the underlying problem.
Barker also explains that the issue did not appear out of nowhere. According to reporting, he had been experiencing the problem following a show he played last month and chose to get ahead of it rather than wait for it to worsen. The outlets describe his account of how the symptoms developed and his decision to seek care, including the subsequent procedure. Neither source attributes the cause of the numbness to a specific condition, focusing instead on what Barker experienced and what steps he took afterward.
