Justin, asked the fans for patience, apologizing because he finds it physically impossible to perform.
"As you can see, this is pretty serious. I would not like that to be the case, but the body is telling me to take it in stride. I hope you understand me. I will use this time to relax and to return with more energy to the thing I was born to do. "
Bieber added that he is currently doing facial exercises to get his face back to normal, but he does not know how long the recovery period will last.
For most people, the symptoms of Ramsay Hunt syndrome are temporary but can become permanent.
