Justin Bieber is currently "doing great" amid his ongoing health condition, Usher says.

Since his diagnosis, Justin Bieber has canceled most of his "Justice" World Tour concerts in North America.

Justin Bieber Ramsay Hunt Syndrome Diagnosis

Justin Bieber sent everyone worrying after revealing to the world last month that half of his face was paralyzed because of Ramsay Hunt Syndrome.

In a video posted on the singer's Instagram account last June 10, Bieber showed his 249 million fans how his recent Ramsay Hunt diagnosis disabled him from moving his face freely.

According to The Mayo Clinic, Ramsay Hunt Syndrome happens when a case of shingles impacts the facial nerve near the ear, which leads to temporary paralysis.

The good thing about the syndrome is that it can be cured with high-dose steroids and antivirals, which can be taken orally at home and are "the most important thing" for recovery.
