AEW star CJ Perry has been hospitalized for several days with a gruesome infection in her finger that has since spread up her arm … a complication that has required surgery.
The 38-year-old shared photos with her millions of social media followers this week … initially saying on Saturday she went to the ER after realizing a problem with her middle finger and arm.
“Please keep me in your prayers I’m at the ER @vphcares,” Perry said on X … explaining the medical emergency is the reason why she has not been competing recently.
“The infection from my small finger has gone up my arm. I am so sorry I had to miss last night and @AEW tonight. I look forward to debuting in Mexico with @AndradeElIdolo. Good luck @ToBeMiro and my client.”
Perry — who went by the ring name Lana during her WWE tenure — provided an update on Monday … revealing she had to undergo a procedure to address the ailment.
“The infection has gotten worse and I’m going into surgery tonight,” Perry said. “Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I love you all.”

Feel better, CJ!!!
