Madame Noire reports that Cardi recently took to her Instagram (in a since deleted post) to show her followers the result of not resting after major surgery.
The “Press” rapper showed her severely swollen feet and revealed that when she flies her feet and stomach become swollen.
“Look at how swollen my feet get every time I take a plane,” she said. “Imagine my body. Reasons why my doctors told me to chill on shows.”
She added that not only is there swelling but she feels a burning sensation in her stomach and feet as well.
She also admitted the most important piece of advice her doctor gave her and how she should have listened to him in the first place.
“You cannot take planes for like 3 months. So every time that I keep traveling, like, my feet and my legs, they swell up. Like, I had really bad ‘cankles.’ Then after my shows, I wasn’t really feeling it when I performing, but I would really feel a lot of back pains. And then on top of that, my stitches around my boobs, on the outside, are completely healed, but the inside, you know, you still got stitches in the inside, in my breasts, so they’ve slowly got to heal.”
Cardi’s been a very busy woman for quite a while. Perhaps this is a sign for her to slow down and rest for a bit so she can continue dominating the game at her full 100%.
