Big Brother medical crisis: Housemate Casey Mazzucchelli is treated by a doctor after struggling EIGHT DAYS with an uncomfortable health problem

One Big Brother Australia housemate suffered a medical crisis this week.

On Sunday’s episode it was revealed Casey Mazzucchelli, 25, was treated by a doctor and medical staff while living in the house.

After struggling with an uncomfortable health problem for eight days, Casey was at her wits end, crying out: ‘What’s wrong with my body?!’

Big Brother host Sonia Kruger said in a voice-over that Casey had visited medical professionals for assistance, but it is unclear whether she left the compound.

‘I know that the doctor and the medics say this is a very gentle approach, but nothing is happening and this can’t be healthy to keep this inside of you for this long,’ Casey confided in Big Brother in the diary room.

Big Brother assured Casey that she would be okay.

'Everyone said I would have pooed by now... there's nothing coming out of body!' It appears Casey may have been suffering from severe constipation

‘We have not been taking a gentle approach. I’ve been told the recommended dosage is two sachets, and you’re having eight. You are a medical marvel.’

Casey laughed, raising her voice to ask: ‘what’s wrong with my body?’

Big Brother continued, leaving an air of mystery as to what her health crisis was: ‘Sometimes it takes a little while… be sure to squat every hour.’

However, later in the episode, Casey addressed it herself in the bathroom, by yelling: ‘Everyone said I would have pooed by now… there’s nothing coming out of body!’  

It appears Casey may have been suffering from severe constipation.   

Casey is one of 12 housemates left vying for the $250,000 cash prize.

Ultimately, Australia will decide the show’s winner when there are only three stars remaining.
