She continued her thoughts in her Instagram story, sharing that she thought the condition "would be solved by now," so she hadn't mentioned it to fans yet. She explained that she started feeling constant burning in her throat back in February. "When I went to see a doctor," she continued, "I was told I have major acid reflux and nodules because I have continued to sing with acid reflux which was probably caused by the steroids I had taken for my ear late last year." Jessie said she continues to be in pain every day, sharing that the nodules have "melted away" from resting her voice, but doctors say they'll come back if she sings. She told fans she was sharing the news to explain why she wasn't doing promo for her new song.
