Tamil actor Prabhu was hospitalised in Chennai earlier this week. It is said that the veteran actor was rushed to a private hospital in Kodambakkam after he complained of severe abdominal pain. After the initial medical examination, the actor was diagnosed with kidney stones. Therefore, Prabhu underwent ureteroscopy laser surgery on Tuesday, February 21. His kidney stones were successfully removed through the surgery and the actor is currently recovering.
The actor will be soon discharged from the hospital after general post-surgery medical tests come clear, said the hospital management in a statement.
“Prabhu was brought to the hospital due to problems in his kidney. We found stones in his kidney and they were removed through ureteroscopy surgery with laser treatment. He is completely in good health. After a few regular check-ups, he will be sent home in one or two days," Medway Hospitals stated in the release.
In the meantime, the actor and his family members are yet to react to the same.
