Alfonso Ribeiro's 8-year-old son Anders had a rough weekend, spending Sunday, Nov. 26 getting stitched up.

The Dancing With the Stars co-host shared a photo of the poor boy's painful injury shortly after he was stitched up, as well as another where his son finally fell asleep, snuggling up on his father's chest on the couch with his cut and abrasion on full display.

Based on his caption, Anders appears to have lost his footing on a slab of concrete while wearing his baseball cleats, smashing his temple into the hard ground.

"Well another trip to @kareskinmd for Anders yesterday," the Fresh Prince of Bel Air alum wrote on Instagram on Nov. 27. "Baseball cleats on concrete is never a good combination. 12 stitches and a cracked bone. Thank you Dr. for always taking our calls, even on a Sunday."

Kare Skin specializes in corrective and therapeutic skincare, according to their own Instagram account, and previously treated Ribeiro's 4-year-old daughter Ava after she fell off her scooter, suffering road rash on her face and down her arm.

At the time, the actor shouted out the medical office "for the emergency service and procedure to help lessen the likelihood of scarring," expressing "how brave" Ava was during the surgery.

The accident came just a day before her fourth birthday, making it a difficult week for celebration, but just a few months later she made her own Dancing With the Stars debut dressed as a Disney princess, who said she'd been "waiting [her] whole life for this."
