Corrie reveals Paul's real health diagnosis after crash as fans fear exit plot

Coronation Street spoilers reveal a health diagnosis for Paul Foreman, as he visits his GP following a recent bike crash.

Paul was riding a motorbike around the street when Carla Connor accidentally crashed a van into him, leaving him injured.

Since then, Paul has been displaying worrying symptoms with him struggling to use and grip things with his right hand.

While he has hidden his concern from his loved ones, next week his sister will take him to the doctors to get to the bottom of it.

Amid fans fearing an exit is on the cards and that Paul could be unwell, a new video clip has revealed a health diagnosis for him.

Dr Gaddas tells Paul in the clip: "So given the pain that you are feeling and the weakness in your hand, I think you might have a bruised nerve.

"I think the injury probably is a result of the accident. It well get better on its own, eventually."

As Paul asked for a timeframe, she replied: "Six to twelve weeks or so. Maybe longer," and as he asked if he could still work as a builder she said: "Well, do what you can but don't push it."

She advised he returned in two weeks for a check-up, but said if he wanted physiotherapy he'd be waiting a while.

It follows fans fearing there was more to Paul's worrying symptoms, after the latest scenes on the ITV soap.

Corrie fans at home were deeply worried after noticing a sudden decline in his health following the crash – with some thinking he may have an underlying nerve condition such as multiple sclerosis.

Taking to Twitter, one viewer wrote: “What’s Paul got parkinsons or MS?” as another echoed: “Ah! Why can't Billy and Paul be happy? Is he having MS symptoms??”

A third asked: “How can nobody notice that Paul's arm is giving him gyp?,” as another wrote: “Looks like Paul has nerve damage in his arm from the crash.”

Coronation Street airs Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays at 8pm on ITV1 and ITVX.
