Following increased speculation in the media and on social media regarding the bruising on US President Donald Trump's hand, the White House has issued a statement. The White House announced that the bruising on Trump's hand is caused by frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin as part of a standard cardiovascular precaution.
Trump's doctor, Sean Barbabella, stated in his remarks, "This is consistent with mild soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen. This is a well-known and harmless side effect of aspirin therapy."
Trump's former doctor, Representative Ronny Jackson, reiterated that Trump is "the healthiest president this country has ever seen."
While the bruising on his hand drew attention once again as Trump welcomed South Korean President Lee Jae-myung to the White House, claims were made that Trump was receiving intravenous treatment or undergoing regular blood tests.
'CHRONIC VENOUS INSUFFICIENCY' DIAGNOSIS
White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt had announced last month regarding US President Donald Trump's health status that he was diagnosed with "chronic venous insufficiency," a blood circulation issue, following an examination after he noticed "mild swelling in his lower legs." It was reported that chronic venous insufficiency is a condition frequently seen in individuals over 70, and it was stated that Trump's health is excellent.
