American comedian Andrew Dice Clay is recuperating after doctors found he had a partially blocked artery following his hospitalisation for dehydration and exhaustion.
Clay, 60, checked into a Las Vegas hospital last week initially as a precaution but, once there, tests revealed that the actor had a partially blocked artery, people.com quoted his representative as saying.
The representative said: "He thought he pinched a nerve at the gym. But once at the hospital he was told he had a partially blocked artery and underwent a stent procedure.
"He's now stable and resting comfortably with his family at his Vegas retreat. It's a necessary break from his gruelling touring and shooting schedule."
The actor will soon be seen in the film "A Star Is Born", which stars Bradley Cooper and Lady Gaga.
