Actor Jet Li has provided conflicting updates regarding his physical and mental well-being. Initially, Li appeared to reassure fans through social media videos showing him as energetic and active, which helped dispel rumors following a 2024 surgery to remove a benign tumor.

However, more recent reports indicate a decline in his condition. Li has described feeling as though he has dementia and experiencing numbness in his hands that restricts movement. He also noted that physical exhaustion and long-term career injuries, such as spinal misalignment, have impacted his ability to exercise. Li expressed a desire to rest, stating that work has become a ‘heavy burden’ and that he no longer possesses the drive to maintain his previous level of activity.
