Luis Miguel's Hearing Condition Has Not Stopped Him from Performing

A fresh look at Luis Miguel's Hearing Condition Has Not Stopped Him from Performing, offering readers expert commentary.

In an interview with the Argentinian newspaper Clarín in 2015, Luis Miguel opened up about the condition, which causes him to hear external noises, such as ringing, when there are none. 

"It's a complicated situation, but you have to think that I began singing when I was 9, so I have been surrounded by loud music for over 30 years. I underwent a treatment and fortunately, I'm much better now," he said, according to El Universal. 

"Sometimes life tests you and you have to overcome these difficulties. I'm overcoming this condition with the support of my beloved ones, the doctors, and the public, that has been extraordinary and given me strength. I have been able to rehabilitate almost miraculously." 

At the time, he had to reschedule a string of concerts due to another health issue, acute rhinopharyngitis, which is a viral infection in his respiratory system.
