The streamer announced his diagnosis on social media Wednesday.
posted to his social media accounts on Wednesday, the 32-year-old content creator -- whose real name is Tyler Blevins -- revealed his diagnosis with melanoma following a recent checkup he scheduled for a mole. The streamer, who boasts 6.6 million followers on X and some 19 million followers on Twitch, wrote in his post that while he is"still in a bit of shock" regarding the health update, he wanted to spread the word and keep his fans in the know.
He adds,"I had another dark spot appear near it, so today they biopsied that and removed a larger area around the melanoma with the hopes that under the microscope they will see clear non-melanoma edges and we will know we got it." "I’m grateful to have hope in finding this early, but please take this as a PSA to get skin checkups," Ninja shared.
