The "Firefly Lane" actress revealed that she and her husband, Josh B. Kelly, flew to Los Angeles, California, from their Utah home for the first time since the onset of the pandemic.
"First trip since the start of the pandemic is back to LA to deal with a herniated disk in my neck," wrote Heigl, 42, in an Instagram post.
"Thank God for @joshbkelley for not only coming with me to hold my hand but for providing me with some very much needed comedic relief! I mean...only Josh can or would harmonize with the coffee maker!" she wrote.

Hours later, Heigl shared a video of her and Kelly inside a medical center receiving treatment. Kelly sat in the doctor's chair and jokingly analyzed x-rays of Heigl's neck and head.
"Well, ma'am, I've got some bad news," he said, turning towards Heigl with a playful and dramatic flair. "Your brain is absolutely gorgeous!"

Heigl wrote in the caption that Kelly's "definitely the guy you want by your side during a health crisis."
"Though...I don't think I'd bring him to the OB with me," Heigl wrote. "Those jokes would just be too far."
Heigl's representatives didn't immediately respond to Insider's request for additional comment.

In February, Heigl made headlines for comments she made in a Washington Post profile, "Katherine Heigl is Done Apologizing."
"What is your definition of difficult? Somebody with an opinion that you don't like?" Heigl wrote. "Now, I'm 42, and that s--- pisses me off."
