After undergoing undergoing reconstructive hand surgery earlier this week, Enrique Iglesias has offered up an update on his condition.

During a concert over the weekend, Iglesias grabbed a drone mid-show and sliced some of his fingers during a gig in Tijuana, Mexico, on Saturday. He performed for 30 minutes following the injury before being rushed to the hospital and has since been treated further.

"We wanted to give you a personal update about his condition. His recent surgery lasted longer than expected since the damage ended up being a bit worse than initially assessed," a statement on his site reads. "He suffered a fracture that needed to be corrected in addition to the reconstructive surgery. He will be recovering during the next few weeks, but a full recovery is anticipated."

The next date on his tour is scheduled for July 3 in Mexico City.
