Fans of Twitch star CaseOh have been left concerned after the popular streamer abruptly disappeared from his usual streaming schedule earlier this month. Now, his mother has stepped in with multiple health updates, giving fans a clearer picture of what's going on behind the scenes, and it's more serious than many initially expected.
CaseOh battles a painful ear infection as streams remain on pause
The first signs of trouble came when CaseOh's mother posted a heartfelt message on his official Discord server. She shared that the Arkansas-based creator had been struggling with severe ear pain, which escalated quickly and forced him to halt streaming.
Antibiotics were started, but according to her, the infection had already gotten 'really bad' by that point.
She assured the community that she was taking care of him, jokingly calling herself "Kitty on Case duty," and thanked fans for their overwhelming support on his recent merch drop.
Despite the tough situation, she made it clear how much Case appreciated the love and generosity from his followers.
Days of pain, no sleep, and no streaming
By July 7, things had clearly taken a turn. Case hadn't left bed since Friday night, and the antibiotics didn't seem to be doing much. His mom updated fans again, confirming there would be no stream and asking people to keep him in their thoughts.
What's wild is how much his community rallied. Messages, memes, and prayer chains poured in from across Twitch and social media.

It wasn't just about missing a stream; it was about worrying for someone they've come to love like a friend.
Stronger meds, but still no clear breakthrough
Midweek, there was finally a bit of medical movement. On July 10, Case visited the doctor and was prescribed stronger antibiotics and ear drops. But it wasn't just an ear infection.
His TMJ (temporomandibular joint dysfunction) was also acting up, adding to the pain and even causing ringing in his ears. The new meds were supposed to bring relief in a few days, but Case could barely stay up for 30 minutes at a time.
Swelling, sleepless nights, and a new treatment plan
Unfortunately, just when things seemed like they might be turning around, Case's condition took another hit. On the night of July 10, his pain reportedly 'kicked into overdrive.'
By the next morning, his ear was nearly completely swollen shut, and his jaw was visibly inflamed. With sleep out of the question and pain escalating, his doctor prescribed a steroid pack to manage the TMJ swelling.
CaseOh himself hasn't made a public statement yet, but according to his mom, he's 'so beyond over this' and counting down the minutes until he can be back with his community.
