Kate Beckinsale was left injured after taking a tumble while searching for her beloved dog Myf during Independence Day celebrations on Thursday. 

The British actress, 50, shared a clip to her Instagram of a pal tending to her bleeding leg after falling from her towering knee-high platforms.

Kate had previously shared a snap of the tiny Pomeranian writing: 'Myf has gone missing if anyone finds her in the Beverly Hills area please can you DM me thank you so much'.

The pooch had seemingly bolted after being spooked by July 4th fireworks with star later chastising him after being found.

After finding Myd she cradled him un her arms and said: 'She's back, ow, you really hurt my knee, Myf you f****** scared the sh** out of us. F****** July 4, Joe, Jesus Christ. What do you have to say for yourself?'.

Captioning the post: 'Jesus effing jeffing Christ we found her. @joe_rome out here saving everybody'. 

Before stating on her Instagram Stories: 'Myf you don't like fireworks it turns out' 

In March Kate's friends took Myf to visit her in hospital where she was suffering from an unknown ailment.

The Underworld actress was dressed in dog-print pyjamas and she had on her favourite black velvet hair bow.

The mother-of-one had a bandaid on her hand and a hospital band on one wrist as she held onto the pooch in the photo.

Kate did not disclose why she had been hospitalised, but MailOnline contacted Kate's representatives for comment at the time.

Weeks later she appeared to shed some light on her recent health woes and shared some snaps to her Instagram grid wearing a white T-shirt with the slogan 'tummy troubles survivor' on it.

It came she caused confusing by posting then deleting some teary snaps from her hospital bed.

She did not elaborate on why she was in hospital wearing a medical gown at the time and later the pictures vanished from her page.

But she returned to social media wearing the Tummy Troubles Survivor T-shirt as she posing with Myf.

She looked stylish in the T-shirt which she wore with light denim jeans, a sparkly belt and black bow head band. 

Kate wrote no words in the caption but added an arm muscle emoji and a white heart.

It came after she left her fans scratching their heads after she completely wiped her Instagram page of evidence of her recent hospital stay.  

Fans noticed that photos from recent weeks showing the actress in a hospital and wearing a medical gown had been suddenly deleted from her page without explanation.

She also appeared to have limited comments on her posts, though the timing was unclear.

The actress — who shared her heartbreak over the death of her beloved stepfather Roy Battersby in January — first shared that she was having health issues on March 11, which is Mother's Day in the UK.

She looked somber while sitting in a hospital bed and wearing a gown and an enormous black bow on her head. 

'Thank you to those that love us and support us when it's s*** and try to make sure there are some bits that aren't,' she captioned the post, via Page Six. 

'And for looking after our dogs when we can't, and lead us to remember happy things when we can't. And turn up when we are sick and sit with us... And send balloons and check in and pull us out of wells with love.'

Although the photos highlighted her hospital stay, the post paid tribute to her actress mother Judy Loe, 77, for the holiday.
