Do Madonna's alleged plastic surgery procedures have something to do with her recent health scare?

Madonna's longtime manager Guy Oseary revealed that the singer was rushed to a hospital after being found unresponsive in New York before her scheduled "Celebration" tour. He revealed that she suffered a severe bacterial infection that led to her admission to an ICU and being intubated.

He assured the fans that her health is already improving and that a full recovery is expected, but internet users recently sparked buzz and alleged that Madonna's health issue was caused by her reported plastic surgeries.

Plastic Surgery The Culprit Behind Madonna's Serious Health Condition?

Despite the assurance from Madonna's manager, some did not hold back and related the pop superstar's condition to her reported plastic surgery rumors over the years.

On Twitter, the keywords "Madonna" and "plastic surgery" dominated the social networking site again and suggested that the singer's enhancements took a toll on her health.


"I wonder if Madonna's bacterial infection is from her BBL & face injections she recently redid," one said. "She was lucky the 1st time, but the 2nd time may have been too much for her elderly body to handle. Plastic surgery gets tricky at her advanced age."

Another wrote, "I could be wrong, but what if plastic surgery contributed to the bacterial infection Madonna suffered?! As someone who's always been a major advocate for women, she should to embrace natural ageing and not go under the knife as often. She needs prioritize her health again."

Meanwhile, others slammed Madonna's critics who continue to drag her down despite facing a severe health condition. Some explained that other celebrities who underwent the same plastic surgeries "should be dead" now if it caused the singer's health condition.

Such rumors should be taken with a grain of salt as Madonna, her family, and publicists are yet to give further information about her serious bacterial infection.

Plastic Surgery Infections Possible?

Amid the rumors, medical news sites explain that contracting such infections after beauty enhancements are rare but possible to happen - though they do not directly speak about Madonna's health condition.

Websites by plastic surgeons explain that people who undergo plastic surgeries have a chance of contracting infection after the procedures. For instance, board-certified doctor Matthew Conrad said in the "How Can I Reduce My Chances of Infection After Plastic Surgery" blog that minimally invasive procedures can cause infections, although body contouring surgeries have higher risks compared to injectables.

Meanwhile, TIME Magazine noted that rapidly growing mycobacteria (RGM) can infect surgical sites, and it is a type of bacteria that is often resistant to standard antibiotics.

Madonna has been the subject of plastic surgery rumors over the past years due to her timeless beauty and younger-looking visuals, but the singer has not directly addressed any of those.
