After experiencing severe coughs and difficulties with breathing, his co-stars urged him to get checked by the medical team. After initial reluctance, he agreed to get checked.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Upon examination, Special Forces\u2019 Dr. Andy Brown, the Chief Medical Officer, shared that Smollett had inflammation throughout his chest. Still, with determination, the Empire actor said, \u201cThere\u2019s a fight in me. I know that now more than any other time in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">However, Dr. Andy said that he had \u201cdeveloped an allergy to something in the dust,\u201d and \u201chis chest sounds horrendous.\u201d Fearing that his condition may get worse, Dr. Andy withdrew him from the competition. Later, the show\u2019s director, Jason Fox, removed Smollett\u2019s armband, saying that the situation was \u201cout of our hands.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Defeated and in tears, the actor confessed, \u201cThere have been too many opportunities in my life to quit on things, on myself, and I don\u2019t quit easily.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Jussie Smollett\u2019s medical issue developed during a challenge in the latest episode. In the October 9 episode, the recruits had to compete in a physically demanding challenge. For this day three challenge, the recruits were instructed to track and extract fallen comrades in a simulated war zone in the middle of the Moroccan desert. It took a toll on several recruits, including Kody Brown, Gia Giudice, Andrew East, and Shawn Johnson. However, Smollett bore the worst of it.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Inspired by the British reality TV show, SAS: Who Dares Wins, Special Forces: World\u2019s Toughest Test is an American reality TV series on Fox. It brings together 16 celebrities in a simulated environment to face military-inspired challenges.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Originally reported by Harsha Panduranga on\u00a0<a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.comingsoon.net\/pop-culture\/news\/2041449-jussie-smollett-exit-removed-out-special-forces-medical-issues\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Comingsoon;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Comingsoon<\/a><\/em>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The post <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\/news\/1672080-jussie-smollett-exit-removed-out-special-forces-medical-issues\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Jussie Smollett Gets Removed From Special Forces Due to Medical Issues;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Jussie Smollett Gets Removed From Special Forces Due to Medical Issues<\/a> appeared first on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mandatory.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Mandatory;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Mandatory<\/a>.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p><em> \u2018 The preceding article may include information circulated by third parties \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n<p><em> \u2018 Some details of this article were extracted from the following source www.yahoo.com \u2019 <\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Jussie Smollett exited Special Forces: World\u2019s Toughest Test due to a medical emergency, as seen on the October 9 episode of the show.
