Instead of gossiping about celebrity news, the self-proclaimed \u201coriginal influencer\u201d has spent the early part of the year documenting the ups and downs of his health as he received medical care near Las Vegas. \u201cMarch madness indeed!\u201d Hilton wrote via [\u2026]\t\t<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cThis whole experience has been the biggest blessing. God destroyed me more than once to build me back up stronger and better than before,\u201d he shared. \u201cNow, since I went through so much trauma, I have signed up, and I\u2019m really excited to begin therapy this week. I\u2019m getting somebody to help guide me through this alongside God.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">While the surgery to repair his deep vein thrombosis was a success, Hilton revealed in a separate Instagram video that his recovery won\u2019t occur overnight.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"instagram-media\" data-instgrm-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DWwPfZJjeAr\/?utm_source=ig_embed&amp;utm_campaign=loading\" data-instgrm-version=\"14\" style=\" background:#FFF; border:0; border-radius:3px; box-shadow:0 0 1px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.5),0 1px 10px 0 rgba(0,0,0,0.15); margin: 1px; max-width:658px; min-width:326px; padding:0; width:99.375%; width:-webkit-calc(100% - 2px); width:calc(100% - 2px);\">\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"p1\">Instead of celebrating <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.usmagazine.com\/celebrity-news\/pictures\/stars-celebrate-easter-2026-mariah-carey-and-more\/\"><span class=\"s1\">Easter Sunday<\/span><\/a> with a variety of activities alongside his three children, the self-proclaimed \u201coriginal influencer\u201d found himself in bed trying to cope with discomfort.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cWalking has been incredibly hard. I\u2019m in a lot of pain, severe pain and I\u2019m trying not to take any pain medications but the pain is 11 out of 10,\u201d he shared via <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DWwPfZJjeAr\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span class=\"s1\">Instagram<\/span><\/a> on Sunday, April 5. \u201cThey did my surgery on Friday morning on my stomach and the entry point was below my knee.
