Viewers believe ' Lauren Branning could be set for a worrying health storyline.
The character has sparked concern this week with loved ones and viewers,. Lauren and others were caught up in a deadly crush in a nightclub.
Lauren was trampled on and sustained crush injuries, with her still recovering now. On Monday night viewers saw her wincing and clutching her side, as partner Peter Beale urged her to rest.
He was visibly concerned as she began crying out in pain, admitting she couldn't do much at all without needing to take painkillers. She kept saying she was fine but it was clear, weeks on from the incident, she was not.
This continued during Tuesday's episode when she was once again in pain. Peter tried to urge her to seek help, worried there was more to what was going on with her.
Lauren appeared to dismiss this, despite her visibly being in agony. Peter was then heard telling people Lauren was struggling, and that he was worried about her injuries.

Now, fans have shared their own theories about the scenes with many thinking they are a hint at a worrying new storyline. Fans are convinced there is more to Lauren's agony, and that there might be something wrong with her.
Taking to social media, one fan posted: "There’s something worse with Lauren than anyone suspects, isn’t there? Is it pancreatitis?" Another guessed: "I think it could also be a painkiller addiction storyline coming up. We know she has an addictive personality ie becoming an alcoholic at a young age so maybe they’ll go down that route?"
Another fan agreed: "Pain killer addiction definitely and with her liver from drinking i don't think it's the best move." A different theory read: "It is probably her liver as it would have been badly bruised in the crush."
On the possible death, one fan said: "I think that Lauren dies at because I heard that Tanya and max coming back." as another wrote: "They did say someone would die from the crush at Peggy’s."
The theories kept on coming too, with a further comment reading online: "Maybe her spleen." A viewer speculated: "She’s addicted to pain killers," as others shared their fears the character was going to be written out of the soap in a sad death twist, believing a health plot could be on the way.
