Michael Jackson is said to be receiving treatment for a skin disorder, which runs the risk of turning into a flesh-eating bug.
The Beat It star - who was snapped stepping out of a Beverly Hills clinic with swollen, discoloured hands - is reportedly being fed an intense dose of antibiotics via a drip to treat the infection.
According to insiders, the king of pop contracted the disorder during a routine rhinoplasty procedure to alter his nose.
A source told The Sun: “Michael Jackson has a severe staph infection that he contracted during work to reconstruct his nose.
“The disease is an MRSA-style infection because it is resistant to conventional antibiotics, so he has been visiting a clinic to get antibiotics via an IV drip."
The source added, “The infection has spread throughout his face and body and is being aggressively treated by doctors.
“There’s a chance it could turn into a flesh-eating disorder where it begins to kill off his skin so he’s being very carefully monitored.”
