Barker took to his Instagram story to share a photo of his wounds.
Travis Barker put blood, sweat and tears into the recent Blink-182 Manchester gig as he endured the show with a bloody hand.
The drummer shared a, since disappeared, picture to his Instagram story of his cut-up fingers and knuckles. He also shared a snap of his blood-stained trousers after the show.
The band performed in Manchester on Sunday, October 15 and Monday, October 16 as part of their Blink's Reunion tour.
Barker has been through a lot of health issues recently. He has had an episode of severe nerve pain (trigeminal neuralgia) as well as a COVID-19 infection and root canal treatment.
He joked to fans that he “can pretty much handle anything god throws” at him.

Back in February, he told fans that he had dislocated and torn the ligaments of one of his fingers while rehearsing for the upcoming tour.
This came before he injured his finger again just before the tour and underwent a successful surgery.
He returned to tour just this month as he had to fly home cancelling shows in the UK and Ireland due to a family emergency. His wife, Kourtney Kardashian, had to undergo “life-threatening emergency surgery” for their unborn baby.
