Blink-182 drummer Travis Barker was taken to West Hills Hospital and then shifted to Cedars-Sinai Medical Center on June 28 due to some health problems. He was accompanied by his wife Kourtney Kardashian.
The reasons behind Barker’s hospitalization have not been revealed. Meanwhile, his most recent tweet read,
“God save me.”
It is the title of a song from Machine Gun Kelly’s latest album, Mainstream Sellout.
The latest reports state that Barker’s health condition is critical and his daughter Alabama Barker took to social media, asking his fans to pray for him. The incident comes a month after Barker exchanged vows with Kourtney Kardashian.
Travis Barker’s health issues explained
Travis Barker has been battling trigeminal neuralgia for a long time. According to Mayoclinic, it is a condition that causes painful sensations similar to an electric shock on one side of the face. This chronic pain condition affects the trigeminal nerve, which carries sensation from your face to your brain. It generally occurs in short attacks and can last for a few seconds to two minutes.
The musician spoke up about this on Joe Regan’s podcast, describing it as a suicidal disease. He said,
“Cause basically all of the nerves in your face are firing all at the same time. So it almost feels like what you feel when you think you need a root canal or you have a tooth that’s messed up.”
Barker revealed that he uses the chemical Cannabidiol, more commonly known as CBD, as a treatment. The chemical comes from the cannabis plant with medical uses and does not consist of tetrahydrocannabinol, a psychoactive element in marijuana.
Apart from that, he was hospitalized in 2018 for blood clots in his arms and has suffered from a staph infection and cellulitis. He had third-degree burns to his body resulting from a plane crash in 2008.
Travis Barker and Kourtney Kardashian tie the knot

The celebrations continued for a few more days and included a dinner party at Ristorante Puny, another dinner at Villa San Bartolomeo, and a reception at Castello Brown, a 16th-century castle.
The couple’s dating rumors began in late 2020 and they made their relationship official in January 2021. They got engaged in October 2021 and had an unofficial wedding in April 2022 following the 64th Annual Grammy Awards. They officially married in Santa Barbara, California in May 2022.
