Enrique Iglesias answered his fans asking the condition of his arm on Instagram days after one of his fingers was sliced by a drone meant to give his fans a good view of his performance in Tijuana, Mexico on Thursday.

According to ITV, the Latino crooner started the conversation on his social media page by posting "Let's do this! #FollowFriday and #FanChat... wanted to do something special to thank all you guys for your love and support this week. Leave your questions on this post!"

The post was then flooded with responses with fans asking when he is resuming his tour or how his hands are.

My hand is getting better little by little...I am going to Mexico at the beginning of July, so see you there!" he replied to his fans in Spanish.

After his performance on May 31, an insider told Billboard that the 40-year old singer's hands have more damages than initially expected and may not gain full sensitivity once healed.

He will need minor rehab once his finger and skin graft have healed. Only time will tell if sensitivity on that tip of the finger will come back and at what percentage," the insider said.

In that concert, the Bailando singer accidentally cut his finger while he was trying to hold a camera-bearing drone to give his audience of a 'point-of-view' shot.

Despite the injury, he continued the concert in the next thirty minutes showing his bandaged hand on stage taking it easily by drawing a heart-shaped caricature on his shirt using the blood coming out from his wound.

His move to continue the show has earned great respect from his fans, Cosmopolitan said.
