Kylee Russell Opens Up About Ongoing Health Struggles: ‘Praying for Some Type of Relief’

Sending well wishes.
Bachelor Nation fans got to know Kylee Russell on Season 27 of “The Bachelor” and Season 9 of “Bachelor in Paradise.”
Now, the fan favorite is continuing to share her life on social media and keeping followers updated with her recent move to San Diego.
During an Instagram Q&A, Kylee opened up about some health issues she’s been struggling with over the past few weeks.
She said, “Two weeks ago, I started feeling crummy. I thought I had strep and was treated for that. Three days later, it was getting worse and I was then diagnosed with bronchitis. My symptoms kept worsening and I developed a double ear infection. I have eustachian tube dysfunction, so my ears are filled with fluid and are unable to pop.”

Kylee went on, sharing, “One doctor’s visit, three urgent cares, two emergency rooms, four antibiotics, and a steroid later and my bronchitis is finally gone, but I still have impacted sinuses and fluid in my ears. I am going to an ENT today to hopefully set up a tube placement for my ears. Just praying for some type of relief.”
We’re sending Kylee love as she hopefully gets better soon!
She also shared a throwback photo from when she was traveling to “Bachelor in Paradise” last summer and wrote, “I found this in my memories I post it almost a year ago on my close friends. I was on the way to Mexico so excited, but soooo nervous. Despite everything, I loved it there and I’d go back tomorrow if I could hehe.”
We love hearing from Kylee, and we’re continuing to wish her all the best in this next chapter and hope she feels healthier ASAP!
