Research Notes on Michael Jackson Health Problems
Although Michael Jackson's death is believed to be attributed to cardiac arrest, the King of Pop has been plagued by health concerns for many years. In 1984, the superstar suffered second and third degree burns to his scalp after a fireworks explosion during the filming of a Pepsi commercial. Jackson made several attempts to free himself from addictions to pain medications over the years, though family and friends fear the continued use led to his death.1
Fast Facts:
- In 1993, Jackson made his battle with vitiligo public.2
- Jackson collapsed in 1995 with physicians stating he became faint due to arrhythmia caused by dehydration.2
- The mega-star grew increasingly thin in recent years, and suffered from anxiety attacks and back spasms.2
- News reports in 2008 claimed that Jackson suffered from lupus and a rare lung disorder, alpha-1 antitrypsin deficiency, though his spokesman has denied these reports.2
