As soon as the post came online, fans jumped into the comments section and prayed for Travis' speedy recovery. 

For the unversed, on the work front, Barker was earlier spotted performing with Machine Gun Kelly for the last leg of his Mainstream Sellout Tour, which was set to conclude in October.

Earlier in July, Barker was rushed to the hospital after he complained of excruciating pain while having dinner.

He shared his health update with a note on Instagram that reads, “I went in for an endoscopy Monday feeling great. But after dinner, I developed excruciating pain and have been hospitalized ever since.

"During the endoscopy, I had a very small polyp removed right in a very sensitive area, usually handled by specialists, which unfortunately damaged a critical pancreatic drainage tube.

"This resulted in severe life-threatening pancreatitis. I am so very very grateful that with the intensive treatment I am currently much better.”
