Phillip Phillips?did NOT have kidney surgery on Tuesday as scheduled because he's burning up with a fever … TMZ reported.
?Phillip has a serious congenital kidney condition that produces kidney stones so large they cannot pass.? The condition has virtually debilitated his right kidney — requiring 8 prior surgeries.
Phillip has had a flare-up through almost the entire “American Idol” competition, requiring a stent that was surgically inserted two months ago — causing the singer extreme and continuous pain.
The American Idol now has a bad sinus infection that has triggered a high fever.? As a result surgeons will not operate.
LEADERSHIP gathered that surgery has been rescheduled for early next week.
