Kevin Hart in intense pain after doctors repaired 3 spinal fractures during surgery

Kevin Hart is reported to be suffering intense pain after doctors repaired three fractures to his spine.

The American comedian suffered a car accident early Sunday morning, September 1, in California.

Kevin had surgery on Sunday night and TMZ sources have revealed that the surgery involved fusing the fractures: 2 of them in the thoracic section of his spine, and 1 in the lumbar.

The procedure was a success but Kevin is still going through agonizing pain, such that he has to be heavily medicated.

Doctors expect Kevin to make a full recovery, but it's going to take a while as lumbar fractures can often result in at least difficulties walking and at worst partial paralysis of the limbs. Though, fortunately, this isn't the case for Hart.
