Braun Strowman Shares Health Update After Infection Surgery – Adam Scherr, the former WWE star known to fans as Braun Strowman, has shared a reassuring update after a serious medical scare. Scherr is still in the hospital recovering from a significant knee infection, but doctors expect him to be released soon.

On the fourth day of his hospital stay, Scherr posted a video on Instagram explaining that he required surgery to stop the infection from spreading. He detailed what doctors found and how they treated it.

“All right, guys and girls, back again. Day four. So, just had surgery. I had an infection in my bursa around my patella in my knee, and it got out of control. So they went in this morning. They removed the bursa from my knee, drained a bunch of fluid out of it, and then left the wound open to continue to drain. It’s going to be a couple of days still, taking it easy. I think I gotta stay in here one more night and then I get to go home.”

Scherr also spoke about the intense pain he experienced before the procedure and how things have finally begun to improve.

“Still got a ways to go to get over this hump all the way with the infection and stuff, but the pain is finally starting to subside some. It doesn’t feel like my kneecap is going to explode off anymore.”

Although Scherr has been away from the wrestling ring since his WWE release in May 2025, he remains active as the host of the USA Network show Everything on the Menu. His fans continue to send support as he focuses on healing and returning to normal life.
