Krayzie Bone, a member of the renowned hip-hop group Bone Thugs-n-Harmony, is in the hospital, facing a severe health challenge, according to All HipHop.

According to sources within the circle, Krayzie sought medical attention by checking into a Los Angeles-area hospital on Friday, September 22.

His initial reason for seeking medical help was coughing up significant amounts of blood. Krayzie Bone has been living with sarcoidosis, an inflammatory disease, which likely complicated the situation.

Following a CAT scan, physicians discovered an artery within one of his lungs was leaking.

Krayzie Bone underwent surgery to address this issue, but regrettably, the bleeding did not cease. As of Sunday, September 23, reports suggest that Krayzie remains sedated and reliant on a breathing machine for support.

His fellow group member Bizzy Bone expressed his concern on Instagram Stories with a simple message: "Pray 4 Kray," emphasizing the importance of prayers during this challenging time.

It is noted that Krayzie Bone had recently stopped smoking, which might have indicated an underlying health concern.

News of Krayzie's health condition has been circulating on Twitter, with an outpouring of well-wishes and positive energy directed towards the artist.

Krayzie Bone's Health Condition, Sarcoidosis

Sarcoidosis is a medical condition that triggers an exaggerated immune response, forming lumps or nodules called granulomas.

The presence and size of these granulomas can lead to a range of symptoms, from mild to severe, or even remain asymptomatic. In some cases, they can develop into fibrosis, causing permanent lung scarring.

Granulomas can manifest in various body parts, with the lungs and lymph nodes being common locations. They may also produce noticeable skin, eyes, or muscle symptoms.

Sarcoidosis arises when the immune system forms a cluster of white blood cells within an area of inflammation, essentially "walling off" the threat it perceives.

These granulomas are encased in dense tissue, making them feel firm and nodular.

While sarcoidosis can affect individuals of any race, it is more prevalent among Black individuals than white individuals, Cleveland Clinic noted.

It also tends to impact those assigned female at birth more frequently than those assigned male. Most diagnoses occur between the ages of 25 and 40.

Although sarcoidosis is not inherited, having a first-degree biological relative with the condition increases the risk of developing it.

Sarcoidosis, Krayzie Bone's health condition, is considered a rare disease, with fewer than 200,000 cases reported in the United States at any time.
