Headline: UNCAPTIONED: Trump Diagnosed with Vein Condition After Swollen Legs Spark Health Rumors
Caption: Trump Diagnosed with Vein Condition After Swollen Legs Spark Health Rumors. The White House has addressed speculation over recent images showing swelling in Donald Trump's legs and bruising on his right hand. Officials say both issues are minor and not cause for concern. According to a letter from Trump's physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, the former president has chronic venous insufficiency—a common, non-serious vein condition in people over 70. An ultrasound ruled out dangerous complications like deep vein thrombosis or heart failure. The bruising on Trump's hand, the doctor added, came from frequent handshaking combined with aspirin use, part of Trump's heart health regimen. White House spokesperson Karoline Leavitt said Trump is not experiencing pain, and reiterated he remains in "excellent health.” Medical experts say while the condition doesn't affect life expectancy, it should be managed with leg elevation and compression to avoid future complications. Trump underwent a full physical in April, which showed no major health issues. Instructions: THIS VIDEO MUST NOT BE EDITED FOR LENGTH TO COMBINE WITH OTHER CONTENT
