It’s not easy being an action star. Tom Hardy is struggling with middle age ailments and doesn’t think things will start improving anytime soon. The famous actor known for Inception and The Dark Knight Rises told Esquire in a recent interview that his illnesses and injuries have started to pile up. “It’s all falling to bits now, and it’s not going to get better,” he said. Hardy, 47, even told the outlet he was dizzy before the interview, adding “I took a Sudafed and it’s starting to work, so I feel better, but in the interviews I was sitting there, and you know when you feel not right, but you can’t tell someone you don’t feel right?” After years as an action star, Hardy has had two knee surgeries and a herniated disc in his back. “I’ve got sciatica as well,” he said. “And I have that... is it plantar fasciitis? Where did that come from? And why? Why?!” The Mad Max star even pulled a tendon in his hip. He said he might even try stem cell treatment in the future or other custom homeopathic treatments like “tinctures.” He added that he maintains his fitness by doing jiu-jitsu.
