“The infection has spread throughout his face and body and is being aggressively treated by doctors," a source told The Sun. "There’s a chance it could turn into a flesh-eating disorder where it begins to kill off his skin so he’s being very carefully monitored.”

Jackson was photographed outside a health clinic, where his hands and face appeared inflamed and blotchy.
