Artie Lange has landed back in the hospital after he was sent to rehab for an addiction to drugs, Breaking Celebrity News has learned.

"He's in the hospital," Lange's podcast partner and friend, Anthony Cumia revealed on his show Tuesday. "He's getting medical attention."

Lange called into The Artie and Anthony podcast from the hospital to give the latest update on his precarious health situation.

"This person just gave me my medication so I could talk," Lange revealed on the phone. "My mother is in the room and she has good macaroni."

Cumia asked the 50-year-old comedian to explain what's happened in the days since that infamous photo of Lange with a swollen nose was tweeted out.

"It's all relevant," Lange said. "I annoyed somebody, so I got punched in the face."

"We did notice your nose was looking bigger," Cumia, 56, teased.

"Put it this way, If you punched Artie Lange over a debt you cannot go to Joel Osteen," Lange responded.

As Breaking Celebrity News previously reported, sources close to the comedian revealed he was beaten up by bookies.

"It kind of blew up on me; and Twitter can be a little outreaching," Lange noted of his trouble. "Whether you tweet or not."

Lange admitted to making "a lot of buddies" at the Essex County Jail, where he spent three days confined to a cell, isolated and under supervision.

"I was in jail for a while and they treated me great," Lange said of jail officials.

"I had a bench warrant — which is not good," Lange continued. "You don't want to have a bench warrant that was existing. They were very cool."
