Nadia Sawalha 'worried sick' as she sends warning to women from hospital bed

Nadia Sawalha had a message for all women as she posted from a hospital bed.

Taking to Instagram, the Loose Women panellist shared that she had been "worried sick" after having a secret health scare. Using the hashtag #WombWellness, the TV personality warned people not to ignore any symptoms they may have and to get checked out.

One picture showed her tucked up in a hospital bed as she managed a weak smile for the camera. A second image showed her posing as she flaunted her hospital gown and pressure stockings.

Nadia captioned the post: "The only reason I’m posting these pics is because I want to catch your eye and urge you if you have been worrying about any symptoms you’ve been experiencing to bite the bullet and get yourself seen! Delaying things will only cause more worry.

"I’m not going to lie I’ve been worried sick myself recently but was given the all clear on Monday! I only wish I had dealt with it earlier so I didn’t get myself into such a pickle.

"Don’t delay make the call. Get seen. You know it makes sense. Big hugs loves Nads xxx." She ended the post with three hashtags: "#womenshealth #hysteroscopy #wombwellness."

Fans of the presenter flooded the comments with well wishes. One user said: "Glad you’re well Nadia, still look gorge in bloody long green compression socks xx".

Hector said: "Oh Nadia I'm glad you're OK, but you're so right. Any worry is best dealt with straight the way so you can get on with your life, sending hugs."

Lee said: "So happy to hear your ok Nadia, we can't have you unwell. Sending loads of love and respect for raising awareness. Look after yourself. I think we all have things we need to have looked at and I think most of us try to avoid getting checked but it's so important we do."
