“I always put things off when it comes to my own health, but I always encourage others to look after themselves. We need to start on ourselves,” commented one fan.

” I had a bump cut off my tongue many years ago. I was a smoker, so I was really scared, but it turned out to be some kind of strange little benign tumour. I’m glad you got your[s] taken care of!,” wrote another.

The news comes just over two months since Pitt announced that she had undergone a “life-changing” nasal reconstruction surgery to assist her breathing.

“I’m currently recovering from a surgery where doctors reconstructed this bad boy,” she previously wrote on Instagram, adding, “I won’t go into too much detail because the gore factor is high, but basically the doctors took cartilage from my ear and used it to re-shape my nose. Amazing huh?!”

Pitt had previously undergone two nasal reconstructions, with her initial surgery in 2015 tragically causing the athlete to suffer a cardiac arrest.

“It’s frustrating because I spend most of my days teaching women how to run, and talking about running, and both of those things, talking and running, require breath,” she said previously.
