Comedian and Dancing with the Stars alum Tommy Chong has announced he is battling rectal cancer after beating prostate cancer in 2012.

"I've had some medical issues lately," Chong told Us Weekly Tuesday.

"I got diagnosed with rectal cancer," the 77-year-old entertainer explained. "I'm using cannabis like crazy now, more so than ever before. I'm in treatment now. I've been -- just the case either way, either I get healed or I don't. But either way, I'm going to make sure I get a little edge off or put up."
