See, we all have our health problems that we don’t really want anyone else to know. And one of those people is Fox Sports lead sideline reporter Erin Andrews. Sharing a close bond with fellow sportscaster Charissa Thompson, Andrews decided to come clean on an embarrassing confession.
In the latest episode of the Calm Down podcast with Erin and Charissa, Andrews revealed quite a few things that her fans might not be aware of. As shared on her Instagram stories, Thompson first asked Andrews about her nasal situation. That is apparently causing a lot of trouble for the Fox Sportscaster. And she quickly recognised what Charissa was trying to talk about as Andrew answered, “The neti pot?” Anyone who doesn’t know what’s a neti pot? We got you.
Well, it’s a small container that is used by those people who are suffering from sinus problems. This neti pot helps them rinse out the debris that is stuck within their nasal cavity using salt water. Well Charissa was surely surprised by this, as she ended up asking Andrews if she was a ‘hypochondriac‘. Let’s just say Erin admitted she was quite anxious about her health.

Although not many people could relate to Erin Andrews facing sinus problems, there was another issue that Andrews had to overcome just last month. Anyone like Andrews, who spends much of their day working in front of screens. They are bound to face chronic dry eye that has affected more than 16M Americans.
And Andrews is suffering because of her dry eye syndrome. Opening up to ‘flow space’ last month, “I look at a ton of screens. I’m on my phone, reading articles, researching football games and watching television. Plus, I’m constantly traveling—planes, hotel rooms, different cities every week. All of that was really taking a toll on my eyes, making them feel gritty and scratchy.” Well, the Fox sportscaster didn’t just reveal her problems with dry eye.
She also urged everyone who is facing similar issues to consult an eye doctor immediately, “I would suggest going to your eye doctor and asking questions. Talk about your symptoms and see what’s best for you. It’s important to listen to them.” While she hasn’t shied away from talking about her health discrepancies, Andrews also revealed a hilarious incident. Within the same interview where she talked about her sinus problems, Andrews had to go through some embarrassment.
