The Blind Side<\/a> star Quinton Aaron<\/a> has revealed he was hospitalised after coughing up blood.<\/p>\n

The 40-year-old actor, who played Michael Oher in the 2009 film<\/a> starring Sandra Bullock<\/a>, was rushed to a Southern California<\/a> medical facility last Thursday.<\/p>\n

He was rushed to hospital after suffering from a fever and ‘a blood-soaked cough’.<\/p>\n

According to TMZ<\/a>, Quinton was given several tests, with early indications showing he’s dealing with Type A flu and pneumonia.<\/p>\n

However, the ordeal has also left him with a migraine for several days.<\/p>\n

It’s hoped he’ll be able to return home after doctors administer a PICC line, and having taken a round of antibiotics, he’s no longer coughing up blood.<\/p>\n

‘I feel optimistic I\u2019ll be back on my feet in no time,’ he told the publication.<\/p>\n

Quinton had been due to perform and present at an event in Orange County, Los Angeles, but was forced to miss the appearance due to his illness.<\/p>\n

The Halfway star was also hospitalised in 2019 when he was suffering from an upper respiratory infection.<\/p>\n

At the time, he explained his symptoms lasted from early May to June, when he was admitted to hospital.<\/p>\n

He was able to return home after being treated over a few days.<\/p>\n

As well as portraying NFL player Oher in The Blind Side, Aaron has held roles in Law & Order, One Tree Hill, Gods of Medicine and horror films including The Appearing and Rock, Paper, Scissors.<\/p>\n
