Phil Collins Discusses Health in New Documentary

In the documentary 'Phil Collins: Drummer First', the legendary musician discusses his deteriorating health and the impact of years of drumming on his body. Collins, now 73, revealed that he has suffered from significant health issues, including nerve damage, drop-foot, and the need for major neck surgery due to his drumming career. He expressed his struggle to accept that he can no longer perform at the level he once did, stating, 'If I can’t do what I did as well as I did it, I’d rather relax and not do anything.' His son, Nic Collins, noted that these health issues stem from years of playing and bad posture. Fans have shown concern for Collins, particularly after his last performance in a wheelchair in 2022. The documentary also features tributes from fellow drummers, highlighting Collins' immense influence in the music world.
