We think we speak for everyone when we say, Ouch.

Tori Spelling's daredevil hubby, Dean McDermott, is currently hospitalized in a Los Angeles-area intensive care unit after sustaining a punctured, collapsed lung in a dirt bike accident Tuesday.

Which may be painful now. But at least it'll make for a good, um, sTori.

"He's expected to make a full recovery," the couple's rep told E! News, adding that Dean will remain laid up in the ICU "for a few more days."

The 43-year-old wiped out on a dirt bike trail earlier this week while riding recreationally with a couple of friends.

"Thanks for the well wishes," Dean—who so loves his extreme sports that his Twitter account is Deanracer—tweeted to fans this morning. "A collapsed lung is no fun, and is a lengthy heal. Feeling pretty bad today. Day 2 is always the worst."

Tori, meanwhile, is no doubt concerned for her hubby's welfare—though she has a funny way of showing it.

Namely by not really showing it at all (or at least not until an exclusive placement comes a-knocking).

While Dean's accident and hospitalization twofer took place two days ago, Spelling has been steadily tweeting since then, though has curiously failed to make even one mention of her better half's health.

Not so her son's ailments, as Tori shared with the world that 3-year-old Liam is currently suffering from a mean case of heat rash. Get well soon, both McDermott men.
