Ricky Warwick, vocalist and guitarist of Black Star Riders and Thin Lizzy, has detailed his health problems from the hospital. After several days of tests, a pleurisy has been detected in a lung. As Warwick explains, it is a kind of pneumonia. Also called pleurisy, it is a disease in which the pleura is inflamed, a membrane that consists of a layer of tissue that lines the inner side of the ribcage and a layer of tissue that surrounds the lungs. A few days ago the Norwegian musician reported that he was going to undergo a small intervention at the Cedars-Sinai hospital in West Hollywood (California). Warwick, 53, had never spent a night in a hospital until now. Ricky Warwick shared his health status on Instagram, saying: https://www.instagram.com/p/B66IRwdnjsB/?utm_source=ig_embed “Wee update from the hospital.
