Faith Hill Has Had Two Surgeries on Her Neck from an Undisclosed Injury . . . And She's Not Talking About It
When FAITH HILL posted an Instagram days before the Oscars all anyone could talk about was her super short haircut. But when more photos surfaced people also noticed she had a scar on her neck.
Well, a source told "People" it's from surgery she had back in January to clean up damage from an injury she suffered a couple of years ago. It's not known what kind of injury we're talking about, or how it happened.
The procedure is called "anterior cervical discectomy and fusion", or ACDF . . . and according to "People", it's generally used to relieve pain from a herniated disc. (Although it's also possible she had a disc removed.)
This was actually the second operation to treat the same issue. The first one was on the back of her neck in 2011. As far as the longterm effects of the injury, the source also said she's doing physical therapy and her recovery is going well.
Although Faith isn't talking about this yet, she's definitely NOT hiding the scar. She recently posted a photo on Twitter where you can see it very clearly.
