Pop singer Adele disclosed that she collapsed backstage due to a sciatica attack.
During a recent concert, part of her Las Vegas Residency at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. Adele had suffered a nerve attack backstage.
“They picked my whole body up of the floor,” Adele told concertgoers this week. “I am going to sit down and rest my sciatica.”
Sciatica is a condition that happens when irritation or compression affects one or more sciatic nerves. The condition can run down from the lower back into the legs. It is not a serious or dangerous condition, but some severe cases need surgery as pain can vary in intensity.
The most common form of sciatica is caused by a herniated or slipped disc in the lower spine.
The vocalist has been open about her sciatica and other health issues that impacted her mobility to move on stage. During a New Year’s Eve concert, Adele told fans she is suffering from many health issues, such as chronic pain, sciatica and a disintegrated disc in her spine in her L5 vertebra.
A compressed L5 vertebrae nerve leads to sciatica, which can bring physical pain.

Adele has said she has suffered from back issues when she was 15. Several other incidents have helped exacerbate her back issues. Adele slipped her L6 in January 2021 after her son Angelo scared her as she exited the bathroom. She said that her pain got better after regularly working out.
It has yet to be determined if her condition will affect future tour dates.
