An African actress famous for her curvacious figure has been hospitalised with kidney disease after using a controversial slimming device to give her a 22-inch waist. Princess Shyngle, who is also a writer and producer, posted three images on Instagram on Friday showing her arm hooked up to an intravenous drip.
The 24-year-old, who previously credited the trainers for her curvaceous figure, captioned the post: 'Hospital bound… Kidney disease healing mercies oh Lord need your prayers ya'll.'
Her illness comes as doctors warned that waist trainers, or corsets that women wear to achieve a smaller waist, can cause damage to internal organs.
In an interview with Ghana Showbiz it is claimed the star has a tiny 22 inch waist and a 44 inch behind.
She explains her hourglass figure is down to a healthy regime, not just the physique-hugging corsets she wears.
The actress says: 'I exercise every single day, I don't have to go to the gym but I make sure I do my sit-ups at home.
'I drink my green tea, warm water and lemon every day and I am always on a diet.
'Naturally, I have always been curvy. The slim waist is the result of waist training but the figure is God given.'
Dr Galyna Selezneva, an aesthetic medical doctor who works at a London-based cosmetic surgery, spoke to dailymail.com about the problems that can be associated with waist training, including changes to the ribs, bone structure and inner organ positions.
She said: 'If someone gets addicted to wearing a waist trainer day after day the inner organs will shift.
'There will be a disbalance in the cavity as it is not normal to have such as small waist. 'There can also be changes to the ribs and bone structures. Obviously if you are wearing them repeatedly, you are not exercising the muscles so they are also wasting.'
