Jessie James Decker had to take her son to the emergency room after a “strange” accident.

She shared the news on Instagram, along with a photo of her little boy enjoying a lollipop while lying on a hospital bed.

“So the weirdest thing happened. Forrest gave his hiney an insect bite and after a few days it somehow turned into a staph that turned into a boil!” Decker wrote in the caption. “It was like a golf ball, it was very hard and it hurt a lot.”

Forrest suffered from a “high fever”, which resulted in a “night” trip to the hospital, where only Decker could accompany his son due to the coronavirus outbreak.

“They had to sedate it, cut it out and take it all out,” the singer explained. “He handled it like a champion, but it was very sad to see him in so much pain! He couldn’t believe this was happening. It was such a strange thing. He put on an antiobiotic and that helped a lot.”

Another fan who identified himself as an ER nurse said the incident “is not that rare.”

“Yes! It happened to my daughters’ butts around the same age too!” wrote another follower.
