After the release of the documentary about the legendary athlete, “The Last Dance,” in 2020, many fans noticed that Jordan’s eyes were yellowish for some reason. Some people were so worried that they began to attribute terrible illnesses to the basketball player. This symptom may be a sign of jaundice, hepatitis or hemolysis.
However, Jordan fans can exhale. Their idol has none of the above diseases. Jordan may simply be suffering from melanosis, which is a pigmented lesion of the conjunctiva. It is often found in people with dark skin, writes Sportskeeda.
This disease only gets worse with age, and at the time of the film’s release, the Chicago Bulls star was 57 years old. It is believed that this is a benign tumor that is not caused by any serious diseases. Jordan just needs regular check-ups with an eye doctor.
Health problems in aging are a side effect of serious training in the youth of almost every athlete. To win the NBA six times, take gold at the Olympics twice, become the NBA Most Valuable Player five times and the NBA Finals Most Valuable Player six times, you need to work very, very hard. Jordan knew how to pull himself together and work. He got up early in the morning and went to train. His diet was new for that time. His attitude towards working with the body made him who he is.
