We are used to seeing him making headlines for his hilarious sketches and impressions, but there was a far more serious reason for this latest story about comedian and chat show host Jimmy Fallon.

 

The star alarmed his fans on social media last night, when he tweeted a photograph of his bandaged hand from a hospital bed.

 

“Tweeting with one hand,” the 40-year-old captioned the image, before going on to explain that he had undergone minor surgery after an accident at home.

 

Jimmy, who is dad to daughters Frances and Winnie with wife Nancy Juvonen, continued: “Tripped and caught my fall (good thing)! Ring caught on side of the table and almost ripped my finger off (bad thing).”

 

 

 

According to reports, the doting dad-of-two had to cancel his taping of The Tonight Show as a result of undergoing the minor procedure.

 

After news of the accident spread across Twitter, fans and followers were quick to send their well wishes to the comedian.

 

 

He responded with the hashtags ‘drugged’ and ‘blessed’, before going on to later tweet: “I’m doing well and thanks for the good wishes everyone.”

 

We’re wishing Jimmy a full and speedy recovery.
