Rumors of Aerosmith breaking up have been swerving for weeks. Perhaps at the center of it all, was Steven Tyler’s prescription medication addiction.
The lead singer of the legendary rock band has entered rehab for treatment his addiction that developed from chronic pain resulting from years of orthopedic surgeries to knees and feet.
Steven Tyler’s orthopedic surgeon, Dr. Brian McKeon explains:
“Managing and controlling his pain has been challenging, and despite our use of alternative therapies and the creation of custom shoes built by a team of engineers from Timberland, Steven’s pain has progressed.”
“The balance between managing his pain and avoiding addiction is tenuous and difficult and his bravery in persevering through rigorous touring is admirable. As with many athletes, Steven put his performance first as he struggled with acute pain for years.”
According to Vitals.com, Dr. Brian McKeon is a Patients’ Choice physician in Massachusetts, where he is affiliated with top rated hospitals, New England Baptist Hospital, Mount Auburn Hospital and Lawrence Memorial Hospital.
Aerosmith is nowhere close to breaking up, since Steven promises to get back on stage as soon as possible.
“I love Aerosmith; I love performing as the lead singer in Aerosmith,” he continues. “I am grateful for all of the support and love I am receiving and am committed to getting things taken care of.”
“With the help of my family and team of medical professionals, I am taking responsibility for the management of my pain and am eager to be back on the stage and in the recording studio with my bandmates Joe Perry, Joey Kramer, Tom Hamilton and Brad Whitford.”

I feel very sorry for him and I am glad he is always consulting his doctor to keep any possible addiction under control. There are so many rock stars from his generation who desperately need to get some Drug Treatment but lack the intelligence to do what's best for them.
