The star shared a selection of photos on her Instagram Story over the weekend, where she had the scar near her left hip on full display, as well as a whole bunch of marks along her legs from cupping therapy.

"Madame is a survivor #newmoon #miracles," she wrote alongside the post.

In December 2019, Madonna had to cancel her North American show of her Madame X tour when she injured herself.

A video showed Madonna attempting to ascend a ladder, where she was left in tears.

"As I climbed the ladder to sing Batuka on Saturday night in Miami I was in tears from the pain of my injuries, which has been indescribable for the past few days," she captioned the clip on Instagram at the time.

"With every song I sang, I said a prayer that I would make it to the next and get thru the show. My prayers were answered, And I made it."

The singer described it as "overwhelming pain".

"I consider myself a warrior I never quit, I never give in, I never give up!!" she continued.

"I have never let an injury stop me from performing but this time i have to accept that there is no shame in being human and having to press the pause button," Madonna wrote. "I thank you all for your understanding, love and support."
