<\/p>\nAdele revealed\u00a0that she collapsed backstage during her Las Vegas residency, due to a sciatica attack, according to The Sun.<\/p>\n
The singer, 35, reportedly told her fans\u00a0at The Colosseum that\u00a0a member of her production team found her unable to move backstage after suffering from a flare-up.<\/p>\n
She allegedly told fans: ‘They picked my whole body up off the floor.’<\/p>\n
Adele also was forced to sit down during her\u00a0Weekends With Adele performance, explaining: ‘I am going to sit down and rest my sciatica.’<\/p>\n
Sciatica is a\u00a0debilitating back condition that normally occurs due to a slipped disk, which presses against the sciatic nerve that runs from the lower back to the foot.<\/p>\n

Scary: The singer, 35, reportedly told her fans at The Colosseum that a member of her production team found her unable to move backstage after suffering from a flare-up<\/p>\n
It can cause shooting pains, a sensation of cramp and can be so severe it leaves someone unable to walk.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Earlier this year Adele\u00a0detailed her chronic back pain during another Las Vegas show as she\u00a0hobbled across the stage.<\/p>\n
While talking to the crowd as she fired T-shirts into the crowd using a handheld cannon, she said: ‘I’ve got two more, I’ve just got to get over to the other side of the stage.<\/p>\n
‘I have to waddle these days because I have really bad sciatica,’ Adele added in the video obtained by the Daily Star.<\/p>\n
Adele has previously discussed being in pain for ‘half her life’, prior to losing weight and how her body overhaul has helped her cope with her problems.<\/p>\n
Speaking to The Face magazine in November 2021, Adele spoke candidly about how life has changed since she famously shed 100lbs to help combat anxiety.\u00a0<\/p>\n
She revealed she first slipped a disc at 15 and when she had a C-section with her son Angelo, nine, her problems increased – so since losing weight she can ‘run around with him a little bit more’ and branded her health a ‘metaphor for surviving’.\u00a0<\/p>\n
Adele’s image has been a hot topic since she returned to the spotlight after her 2019 divorce and she has spoken about how physical health has helped her anxiety.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Looking good: The Easy On Me singer spoke candidly about how life has changed since she famously shed 7st to help combat anxiety (pictured left 2021 right in 2008)<\/p>\n
Speaking about the physical pain she was in prior to her weight loss, she said: ‘I’m definitely really happy now…\u00a0I’m more agile because I can now move more, because of my back. I got my core strong…<\/p>\n
‘I slipped my first disc when I was 15 from sneezing. I was in bed and I sneezed and my fifth one flew out. In January, I slipped my sixth one, my L6. And then where I had a C\u2011section, my core was useless.<\/p>\n
‘I’ve been in pain with my back for, like, half of my life, really. It flares up, normally due to stress or from a stupid bit of posture..<\/p>\n
‘But where I got my tummy strong, down at the bottom, which I never had before, my back don’t play up as much. It means I can do more, I can run around with my kid a little bit more.’<\/p>\n
On how her health has improved and changed, she went on: ‘But I like feeling strong, I really do. I love it. I was lifting weights this morning, and I’ve gone up from what I was doing a couple of weeks ago…<\/p>\n
‘When I feel that I have the weight of the world \u2013 of my world at least \u2013 on my shoulders, I can handle it a bit more because I’ve gone up 10 pounds with my weights. It really was just a metaphor for surviving.’<\/p>\n
