'Mariah Carey is struggling with nerve damage' according to husband Nick Cannon

At the beginning of July, vocal sensation Mariah Carey injured herself on the set of a music video and her husband has revealed that the recovery is tougher than she expected.

The hitmaker tripped and fell while shooting her remix video for '#Beautiful' and dislocated her shoulder, but also chipped the bone and cracked a rib so had to be rushed to hospital.

Now, Nick Cannon has revealed to tooFab that she is struggling because she has suffered some nerve damage: "She's doing a lot better, but she still doesn't have movement in her right arm, there's nerve damage."

"Her shoulder is definitely a lot better, back in place, but she also had some cracked ribs. She can't move. The fact that she doesn't have use of her right arm right now has been pretty tough on her, but the doctor said with a lot more rest and relaxation she'll be fine."

Despite having to wear a sling, Carey took the stage last weekend and wore a variety of customised arm pieces (shown below) while she sang with the New York Philharmonic orchestra.
