Fox News host Sean Hannity addressed his on-air appearance following viewers’ concerns.
The television personality hosted his primetime show on Tuesday, June 23, and worried some of his fans, which prompted Hannity to open up about his health diagnosis.
“Thanks to everyone who has checked in. I’ve already addressed this several times on my radio show, but while training, I developed a painful pinched nerve in my neck,” Hannity posted on X, the microblogging platform formerly known as Twitter.
He continued, “My doctor put me on prednisone to reduce the inflammation, and while it’s helping, it led to laryngitis and some puffiness, which is normal for this medication. I’m fine, recovering well, and still training, but apparently a few weeks of prednisone has generated more social media commentary than 30 years of ratings success.”
The Hannity show host said he appreciated everyone’s concerns and “well wishes,” adding, “Including from members of the left-wing media. Sorry to disappoint them, but a pinched nerve, a raspy voice, and a puffy face aren’t taking me out anytime soon.”
Hannity had previosly opened up about about his health on his radio show, explaining, “I actually went to a doctor, and what he said is I had a bad sinus infection, which led to laryngitis, and I didn’t wanna take this crappy medicine called prednisone, and so he just said to ride it out, don’t worry about it, you’re not hurting your vocal cords at all.”
Clips and stills of Hannity went viral on social media after his Tuesday night appearance on Fox News, where he revealed the outcomes of key primary elections.
