“Quick history: I landed in Spain, had a little side/back pain. Learned, worked out, etc. etc. … thought it was just my usual back pain,” he wrote.
Chmerkovskiy said he went to bed but couldn’t sleep because he was dealing with pain throughout the night. The following day, the professional dancer tried to “get off” but the pain continued.
