Trump was diagnosed with venous condition after noticing “slight swelling” of his legs

The White House said Thursday that U.S. President Donald Trump had undergone medical examinations after he recently noticed “slight swelling” in his calf and was found to have a common condition in older people, causing blood accumulation in the blood.

Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said White House medical department tests showed that Trump suffered from chronic venous insufficiency, which occurs when small valves in the veins usually help to make blood fight against gravity gradually lose their ability to function properly.

Leavitt also addressed the bruises to the back of Trump’s hand, which can be seen in recent photos covered by makeup, which doesn’t exactly match his skin tone.

The bruises were “consistent” because of his “frequent handshakes and the use of aspirin” stimulation, she said. Trump takes aspirin to reduce the risk of heart attacks and strokes.

Levitt said at a press conference that she disclosed Trump’s medical tests were intended to eliminate recent speculation about the 79-year-old Republican president’s health. Still, this news is worth noting given that Trump often keeps the basic facts of his health.

Trump conducted a comprehensive physical examination in April and conducted a comprehensive physical examination with more than a dozen medical experts. The three-page report released by the White House at that time did not find chronic venous insufficiency.

At that time, his doctors confirmed that the president’s joints and muscles had full movement, normal blood flow, and no swelling.

Levitt didn’t say when Trump noticed his calves for the first time. As part of the president’s routine medical care, she said he had “a comprehensive exam” that included blood vessels, lower limbs and ultrasound.

That’s 70 common situations: Leavitt

Leavitt notes that chronic venous insufficiency is a benign disease and is common in people over the age of 70.

She said the tests found no evidence of deep vein thrombosis, a more serious medical condition where one or more deep veins are usually formed in one or more deep veins in the legs. She said there was no evidence of arterial disease, and read a letter from Dr. Trump.

People are usually advised to lose weight, exercise and raise their legs regularly, and some people may be advised to wear compression stockings. Over time, severe cases can cause complications, including low-leg sores called ulcers. Levitt said the blood clot was a cause, but was excluded.

Levitt said the situation did not cause any discomfort to the president. She would not discuss how he treated the condition and suggested that the details were published in a doctor’s letter, which was later released to the public. But the letter is the same as what she read and there is no other detail.

Levitt said the White House disclosed tests on Thursday included other tests that found no signs of heart failure, renal dysfunction or systemic disease.

“The president is still in good health and I think you’re here to witness every day,” she told reporters.
