Scott Disick‘s health seems not to be improving after his 2022 car accident and this has created some concern for his loved ones, including Khloé Kardashian.
During a new episode of The Kardashians, which started streaming on Thursday, October 12, Scott, 40, talked about the aftermath of his accident.
“I gained a lot of weight here because of my back,” he admitted to Khloé, 39, when she visited him at home. “Ever since that car accident, [my back pain] got worse over time.”
Khloé advised Scott to speak with a physical therapist before his back issues required surgery.
“I think Scott maybe needs a little pep talk because this is probably the unhealthiest I’ve seen him. He’s barely mobile and it is all from his back. That wouldn’t make anyone feel good,” she noted in a confessional. “I think Scott needs to realize these things are fixable. You can’t let it get you down.”
The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department Bureau confirmed to Us Weekly in August 2022 that Scott was behind the wheel when the solo accident occurred in Calabasas.
“It was determined the primary cause of the traffic collision was speed and alcohol was not a factor,” the LASD said in a press release at the time. “Mr. Disick suffered minor, non-life-threatening injuries and declined medical treatment. He was picked up from the scene by family members and his vehicle was towed away per his request.”
In Thursday’s episode, Scott let the cameras come with him to his first doctor’s appointment for his back issues. The medical professional told Scott he was right on the cusp of needing surgery if he didn’t take action.
Scott was full of gratitude to Khloé for being by his side, telling the cameras, “I am feeling good and I figure I am better off doing the therapy than getting possibly abused by Khloé. So I am happy to commit to this and then on my 40th birthday or something me and you … what?”
After Khloé waved off Scott’s advances, he added, “I don’t know. But on my 40th birthday maybe I will feel better.”
