Darren Watkins Jr., aka IShowSpeed has been dominating YouTube with his energetic content since rising to fame with his FIFA gaming videos and his over-exaggerated reactions. However, now, the 19-year-old seems to be experiencing some health issues, having been hospitalized in Japan in 2023, with signs of cluster headaches. 

According to Dexerto, IShowSpeed has been hospitalized after experiencing severe pain and swelling in his right eye, which has led to numbness on one side of his face. These are often considered signs of cluster headaches, which leave people with extreme burning or piercing pain. It seems the 19-year-old star is experiencing similar issues.

Meanwhile, concerned fans voiced their support and encouragement for the star, and others seemed hopeful that this surgery would get him relief.
