Kym Marsh: Coronation Street star needs surgery as she opens up on ‘painful’ problem

Kym Marsh, 42, who quit her role as Michelle Connor in Coronation Street earlier this year, said she has felt pain in her pelvis for a long time now.

After undergoing an MRI scan, the soap star explained she needs to correct a problem in her coccyx.

In her latest column for OK! Magazine, Kym spilled: “I’ve had pain in my pelvis for a while now.

“I recently went for an MRI scan and I’ve been told I have a bone spur on the tip of my coccyx.”

The Coronation Street star explained: ”It’s basically an overgrowth of bone, which is pushing into muscles and tendons and causing me discomfort.”

Kym said she will be having surgery to help correct the problem, but it won’t be slowing her down in the meantime.

“I have to have a procedure done to correct it and I’m told exercising won’t cause it any damage,” she said.

“So I’m looking for a new personal trainer and hope to be in shape again by summer.”

Last month, Kym said she underwent tests at hospital for a different issue after feeling “awful”.

Revealing her symptoms, she said in the publication: “I was shaking, I felt terrible and like I’d been hit by a truck.

“They ran lots of tests on me and I’m still waiting for the results, but doctors think it could be Salmonella poisoning, which is really serious.”

The actress added her illness was “terrifying” and nothing she had experienced before.

She told the publication: “I was bed-ridden for four days.

“The whole family rallied around me, David and Emilie had to get Polly up and ready for school because I couldn’t get out of bed.”

Meanwhile, Kym celebrated a huge milestone last week as she told her Instagram followers she has been playing Michelle Connor in Coronation Street for 13 years.

Beside an old image of her character posing outside Rovers Return, Kym reminisced: “13 years ago today I made my @coronationstreet debut!!!

“What a 13 years that has been! Thank you so much for the great times, the things I’ve learned and the opportunities I have been given in playing Michelle Connor!! ps: look how young I look.”
