Jason Tartick Hospitalized After "Crawling on All Fours" Due to Back Pain

Bachelor Nation star Jason Tartick shared his recent hospitalization due to severe back pain. This health issue developed after he returned from an RV trip from Nashville to New York.

In a March 24 podcast episode of Trading Secrets, Jason expressed frustration about his condition. "I don’t know what the hell’s going on with me," he stated. "I’m getting f--kng old, man. Washed up."

At 36 years old, Jason described a back injury that intensified during his trip. He recalled, "I was crawling on all fours," emphasizing the severity of his pain. In a candid moment, he remarked, "That pain… I hope to never feel it again."

During his hospital visit, Jason received steroid treatments and is still using them to manage his pain. He mentioned, "I go get an MRI f--king tomorrow," revealing his fear of potentially facing a herniated disc. He expressed hopes it’s just a bulging disc instead.

"Right now, from my knees to my toes, it’s tingly," he elaborated. Recently, he was lifting significant weights, stating, "I was squatting about 295 pounds." Now, he struggles with even a simple squat, comparing his condition to having had a stroke.

He attributed his injury to both heavy lifting and the constant movements during the RV trip. Despite the pain, he concluded, "We’re on the mend."

Jason also shared updates on his healing since his breakup with influencer Kat Stickler in October. "I’m back in Nashville this week, connecting more with myself without distractions," he shared. "Really exciting chapters and next steps are coming."

Yet, his medical visits are far from over. He humorously documented one recent experience on social media. "You know what getting old is? It’s wearing hospital shorts for an X-ray," he joked in a March 24 TikTok video, showcasing his blue hospital attire.

"If you look up ‘washed up’ in the dictionary," he added, "it’s this."
