Camille Prats disclosed that she had to pause working out for a month because she needed to recover from the surgery she underwent to remove the ganglion cyst on her foot.
According to Mayo Clinic, a ganglion cyst is a lump filled with a jellylike fluid that most often appears along the tendons or joints of wrists or hands, and in ankles and feet.
“About a month ago, I had a minor surgery on my left foot. Had a ganglion cyst removed [because] it’s been growing and bothering me whenever I wear rubber shoes for workout,” the actress-TV host said on her Instagram page on Tuesday, Nov. 14, showing herself on a wheelchair and with stitches on her foot.
“Recovery took more than expected; [the] doctor said 10 days but the wound wasn’t healing as fast as I’d hoped. This meant no workout for a month for me,” she continued. “For a time, I felt frustrated for not being able to do my usual routine.”
Prats struggled to begin working out again, admitting she “almost always wants to stop.” “But then I realized, I have to keep going and get over the hard part for me to get stronger and do it again the next day.
“I was reminded once again what discipline is all about; doing it even when you don’t feel like it,” she continued. “Here I am, back at 121 lbs, struggling and starting all over again one day at a time.”
Prats then became emotional after receiving messages of support from fans and fellow celebrities via the comments section.

“Teary-eyed reading your encouraging words. [I] didn’t realize how much I needed that. Thank you, thank you guys!” Prats wrote.
