New Insights from Michael Jackson's Autopsy Report Emerge After 16 Years
The discussion surrounding the health of pop icon Michael Jackson has been reignited following a report by the British newspaper "Mirror," which includes new details from his autopsy conducted after his death in June 2009 at the age of 50.
The report indicates that Jackson's body displayed numerous scars resembling stab wounds across various areas, including his arms, hips, thighs, and shoulders. Experts suggest these marks may be linked to repeated injections of potent painkillers that he used to manage insomnia and chronic pain.
Additionally, the autopsy revealed that Jackson weighed only 55 kilograms at the time of his death, a figure that suggests a history of extreme dieting, cosmetic procedures, and potentially eating disorders that he kept hidden from the public eye.
Notably, no oral medications were found in his stomach, supporting the theory that he relied heavily on injected medications rather than pills, with reports indicating he may have consumed just one small meal daily.
Experts also identified scars behind his ears and on the sides of his nose, indicative of the numerous cosmetic surgeries he underwent during his career.
These findings reflect the extent to which Jackson concealed his health issues, often preventing medical professionals from examining certain areas of his body and keeping details of his condition private, even from those closest to him.
Experts have linked his deteriorating physical state and reliance on prescribed medications to the tragic overdose of the anesthetic propofol that ultimately resulted in his death.
This recent report has reopened discussions about the final years of Michael Jackson's life, which were marked by intense psychological pressure, physical pain, and health challenges that he navigated away from the public eye, despite his immense fame and iconic status.
