Pope Francis uses wheelchair for first time due to knee pains

May 5 2022

Pope Francis has just appeared using a wheelchair for the first time due to worsening knee pains at a public event on Thursday.

The 85-year-old pontiff was wheeled into the Paul VI hall at the Vatican for a meeting of a Catholic organisation of sisters and nuns. Francis used a wheelchair after an operation on his colon last summer.

However, this was the first time he was been pictured in one at an event open to the media. The Pope had cancelled numerous engagements and struggled to walk in recent days.

On Wednesday, the church leader had to be helped out of his chair by an assistant at the weekly St Peter’s Square appearance. The Vatican has not yet revealed what the problem is, but sources revealed he has chronic arthritis.

Speaking to Corriere della Sera, the Pope said that he would undergo an intervention with infiltration. This involves the injection of anti-inflammatories into the joint. He is also allegedly taking pain killers as well as treating the pain with ice.
