Travis Explains Why His Arm Was In A Sling

Travis Barker was a presenter at the Grammy Awards on Sunday night, along with his former current band mates from Blink 182.

And, as many of you noticed, Barker was sporting a sling on his arm.

Was that a new injury or a result from the awful plane accident last September?

Backstage, Travis opened up and told TV’s Extra, “I kind of rushed out of the hospital and my hand was numb, but I didn’t tell anybody. I just wanted to get out. The numbness didn’t go away. It was like in four or five of my fingers.”

So, Barker recently went in to get the problem addressed.

He says, “I really wanted to fix it as soon as possible. I had bad nerve damage, so I just got surgery. I have eight to ten weeks to recover.”

Hopefully this time he’ll have a full recovery!
