Justin Bieber took to his Instagram to share with his fans that he has been diagnosed with Ramsay Hunt Syndrome, a rare condition that has paralyzed half his face. Ramsay Hunt Syndrome is a rare neurological disorder caused by the varicella zoster virus, the same virus that causes chicken pox in children and herpes zoster. The disorder also leads to rashes on the ear, tongue or roof of the mouth, pain in the ear and vertigo.
