"What's up friends? So yeah, my bad. I ended up out here in Peoria, [IL], but the doc was cool, shout out to Claire our RPT on tour and for everybody on tour for rallying. I've just been having vertigo for the past couple of days and I had it [on Saturday]," the professional dancer said.

Vertigo is a sensation of spinning, tilting or moving when you are actually still. It's often described as a severe type of dizziness, according to the Cleveland Clinic.

Though not a disease, it's a symptom of underlying conditions usually involving the inner ear or brain.

Val, dressed in a gray sweatshirt and blue beanie, noted how he was able to get through the show prior to his hospitalization.

Appearing groggy and a bit sweaty, Val continued, "We ran some tests... Once that little crystal in your equilibrium -- and again, I'm learning a lot -- goes out, it's really hard to get it back in, and so I'm just spinning everywhere."

Val said his symptoms were particularly bad while traveling on the tour bus, adding, "I woke up and I just couldn't get myself together."

Val went on to share how Monday, March 2 was a scheduled day off for the dancers and so he'd "hopefully be back" on Tuesday, March 3.

"Love you, thank you," Val concluded.

Val uploaded the video a couple of hours after he had addressed Dancing with the Stars fans in Illinois via Instagram Stories for missing the tour's Sunday, March 1 stop at Peoria's Prairie Home Alliance Theatre.

The professional dancer and choreographer then informed his followers that he was getting "blood work done" and his "vitals checked."

The official DWTS Live Instagram account commented on Val's post, "We hope you feel better soon."

Val -- who is married to fellow DWTS pro Jenna Johnson -- has been performing in the Dancing with the Stars: Live! tour alongside many Season 34 celebrities and other DWTS pro dancers.

Val and his celebrity partner, influencer Alix Earle, had finished Dancing with the Stars' 34th season in second place late last year.

Val and Alix lost the Len Goodman Mirrorball Trophy to winners Robert Irwin and pro partner Witney Carson.

The next stop on the Dancing with the Stars tour is Milwaukee, WI, on Tuesday, March 3.

The tour will come to a close in Akron, OH, on Wednesday, May 13.

Val has won Dancing with the Stars three times with Rumer Willis on Season 20, Laurie Hernandez on Season 23, and Xochitl Gomez on Season 32. He's also had a handful of second or third-place finishes.
