Khloé Kardashian revealed to fans the reason behind the facial bandages she has been wearing in public lately.
On her Instagram story Tuesday, the reality television star wrote that she recently had a tumour removed from her face.
“I have seen numerous stories going around about the ever-evolving bandage on my face with some of you wondering why I’ve been wearing one for the past few weeks,” Kardashian, of The Kardashians, wrote.
“After noticing a small bump on my face and assuming it was something as minor as a zit, I decided to get it biopsied 7 months after realizing it was not budging.”

Kardashian, 38, shared two close-up images of the since-removed tumour on her face.
The Good American founder claimed to have had two biopsies done by separate doctors. She wrote that the medical professionals felt the tumour was “incredibly rare” for a woman her age.
“A few days later I was told I need to have an immediate operation to remove a tumor from my face,” Kardashian wrote.
