Jim Ross has checked in with another health update.
On the latest edition of his "Grilling JR" podcast, the AEW commentator provided fans with an update on his condition following his recent battle with skin cancer.
The legendary pro wrestling commentator spoke about his recent doctor's appointment and how his healing has been going.
“I had a doctor’s appointment today. I’m going back in 30 days which is good because at one point in time, I was seeing the doctor daily. Then when I got my treatments all done, I started every other week and so today, we scheduled it in a month.
"So the doctor is pleased with my healing. My leg has not healed yet. I came back to work about 30 days too early according to the doctor. It wasn’t too early for me. I was ready to go, but yeah, he’s pleased with my progress. He said you can’t let yourself be tricked into thinking that you’re healed. You’re not.”
Additionally, "Good Ole' JR" noted that his ankle is still tender from the radiation treatments he underwent throughout his recovery process.
“It’s still tender, but there’s less spots on my ankle that are adversely affected, so I’m doing better. Thanks for asking and I know I appreciate everybody’s support on that deal.
I can’t expect it to be perfect. It’s not going to be perfect for a while, and my doctor today said it’s going to be a few months until that spot of my ankle is where all that new skin is being grown. My biggest enemy is two flights in one day because the second flight aggravates the swelling of my foot.”
