U2 frontman Bono required two surgical procedures and will need intense therapy in order to recover from injuries gained after being involved in a bicycle accident, BBC News reported.

The New York Presbyterian/Weill Cornell Medical Center released a statement saying that Bono was involved in a bicycle accident after attempting to avoid another rider and had to undergo surgery to deal with his injuries.

The singer broke his arm in six places, fractured his eye socket, hand and shoulder blade. The arm fracture reportedly took five hours of operation on Sunday, during which Bono's arm had to be outfitted with three metal plates and 18 screws. It was followed with another surgery to deal with injuries to his left hand.

Dean Lorich, orthopaedic trauma surgeon, said that Bono will require intensive and progressive surgery will be needed, but that the 54-year-old is expected to have full recovery.

The singer was injured on Nov. 16, the day after he recorded the new Band Aid 30 single, according to Rolling Stone.

Bono was cycling through New York Central Park and attempted to evade another rider in what the New York hospital is calling a "high energy bicycle accident."

U2 was due to start a week-long residency on "The Tonight Show with Jimmy Fallon," which they have to postpone after Bono's injury. Bono's bandmates released a statement about the matter on their official website on the day of the crash.

"It looks like we will have to do our Tonight Show residency another time," the statement read. "Bono has injured his arm in a cycling spill in Central Park and requires some surgery to repair it. We're sure he'll make a full recovery soon, so we'll be back! Much thanks to Jimmy Fallon and everyone at the show for their understanding."

There are no details as of yet on how Bono's accident will affect the band's upcoming 2015 arena tour.
