A statement released on behalf of Paul reads: “"Since contracting a virus last week that led to the postponement of tour dates, Paul received successful medical treatment at a hospital in Tokyo.
"He will make a complete recovery and has been ordered to take a few days rest,” it continues. “Paul has been extremely moved by all the messages and well wishes he has received from fans all over the world."
“Thank you so much for your kind messages of support. I’m so very touched. Unfortunately my condition has not improved overnight,” it read. “I was really hoping that I'd be feeling better today.
“I'm so disappointed and sorry to be letting my fans down.”
Paul is due to play 19 concerts in the US beginning with a gig in Texas on 14 June. At present, those concerts are still due to go ahead as planned.
