John Cena Comments On ''Herniated Disk'' Injury; Will Meet With Doctors

According to an article on WWE.com, "John Cena" has been dianosed with a herniated disk in his neck and will be out of action indefinitely. MRI results revealed the injury was considerably worse than originally thought with large disk herniation.

Cena had the following to say about the injury: "It needs to be dealt with because I lost most of the feeling in my right arm and am having pain in my shoulder. I'm losing 20 percent of my strength per day. If I don't do anything about it, the injury will end up rupturing and then the surgery will be more difficult. It's not easy, because surgery never is."

He is scheduled to meet with Dr. Joseph Maroon at the University of Pittsburgh on Tuesday, while PWInsider is reporting Cena will meet with Dr. Lloyd Youngblood later this week who has performed neck surgeries on various current and past WWE stars such as "Steve Austin", "Edge", "Gregory Helms", "Amy "Lita" Dumas" and "Scotty 2 Hotty".
