LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Former World Cup alpine ski racer Linsey Vonn is looking for healing treatment after she was stung by a jellyfish.

The 38-year-old revealed she met with the unfortunate incident on Tuesday, September 19, and shared the painful-looking injury on her Instagram Story.

Vonn, who won four women's World Cup overall championships, also asked her fans for soothing tips.

“Any tips for getting stung by a massive jellyfish?” she wrote in her first caption according to People.

Lindsey Vonn also posted a nasty-looking image of her upper thigh

Besides the question, Vonn shared a picture of the back of her wet leg which displayed a large red swollen patch across her upper thigh while she stood by the water shortly after being stung.

She then posted a photo of her trying out one suggested method as she snapped her legs in a bucket full of clear water.

“Trying the hot water soak ... ” she wrote. Vonn finally uploaded a close-up image of her jellyfish sting which appeared no longer swollen but still showed a huge patch of deep red marks.

“How concerned should I be?!” Vonn wrote as she presented a sliding-bar poll to fans, near the bottom of the photo.

Lindsey Vonn had a knee surgery a few months ago

The sports star's injury came to light after following her knee surgery just a few weeks ago.

Vonn shared in a candid post on Instagram last month where she disclosed the recent procedure on her right knee and showed off her scars from the surgery in a clip.

“Big reveal … how do the scars look?!" she wrote in her caption. "One week post surgery and they are a little raw but shaping up well! Need to cut the stitches soon … *WARNING* don’t watch if you’re squeamish!! But honestly, it’s not that bad ... Right? 🤷🏼‍♀️”

She explained the surgery process in the video with a voiceover recorded by the former Olympic skier.

“If you’ve ever wondered what it looks like to take off steri strips after a surgery, well, here you go,” Vonn said as she pulled the strips out of her knee.

“You got some small portals for like tools so they can wash the knee while they’re actually inside of it, which is pretty gross," Vonn continued.

“My stitch got a little bit tangled in the steri strip, so obviously I used a kitchen knife to cut it, because, why not?” she said, adding “It’s a little bloody still, but pretty closed up.”

The athlete previously said that the procedure was needed as a result of “all the damage from my ski racing career.”

Vonn was still able to enjoy her outdoor activities following the surgery she posted clips of her jet skiing, surfing and diving off a cliff into the water during a recent trip to Lake Powell, Arizona.

"Maybe not doctor approved 🤭but man I had fun!" she wrote alongside the post on August 13. "First day on a foil and knee feels great. Full steam ahead 💪🏻 #healing."
