altHollywood celebrities may seem flawless, but stars share the same problems as us. For actor Eric Dane, his latest issue is painkillers, according to The Huffngton Post.

Recently, the Grey's Anatomy star commonly referred to as "McSteamy" checked himself into a rehabilitation clinic to cope with a painkiller addiction. Dane will be staying at a facility in Los Angeles until he can get clean and return to work. Many people might be surprised by the news, but addiction is something that can affect anyone, regardless of his or her star status.

"Actor Eric Dane voluntarily checked himself into a treatment facility to help him get off of pain medication that he was prescribed for a sports injury that he suffered over the recent hiatus," his representative told the news source. "He reports back to work next week. Business as usual."

Dane recently received news that his wife is carrying his second child. McSteamy and his sweetheart, Rebecca Gayheart, already have a 16 month-old daughter.

Needless to say, Dane has something to look forward to when he leaves rehab. Maybe this will serve as motivation for him to get back on the right path toward a healthier lifestyle.
