Justin Timberlake recently told fans that he’s been fighting Lyme disease. On Thursday, 31 July 2025, he shared this news on his Instagram account after finishing his 2 year tour, adding to this, he said the disease is “relentlessly debilitating”.

Many people had noticed something was off during some shows. Now we know why.

So, What is Lyme Disease? It starts with a tiny bite from a black-legged tick, often found in grassy or wooded areas. The tick passes bacteria into your body. Many people don’t realize they have it, as the symptoms are very common and can’t be seen in some circumstances. If left untreated, the situation can worsen.

Headaches

Fever

If you don’t treat it early, it can cause problems like

Joint pain
