Thirteen days before Monday’s incident, an ambulance and the fire department responded to Barker’s home for a “non-emergency back problem” on Oct. 9.
The two recent injuries come more than a year after Barker fell and hit his head at his home in June 2017.
A rep for Barker previously confirmed to PEOPLE that Barker sought medical treatment after the fall at his house. His housekeeper drove him to the hospital, where he underwent a series of tests in the emergency room, according to the rep.
Barker was released a few hours later, after doctors determined he had not suffered any serious injuries. The rep said Barker was “doing fine,” adding that the accident wasn’t as serious as his October 2015 fall, in which he suffered cuts to his head.
