      <title>Trump in excellent health with leg swelling, hand bruising, doctor says</title>

      <description>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;US President &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/world/us/donald-trump/"&gt;Donald Trump&lt;/a&gt; remains in excellent health, his ‌physician said in a memo released by the White House on Friday, citing results from an examination this week that indicated the 79-year-old continues to experience “slight lower leg swelling” and “benign” hand bruising.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“President Trump remains ​in excellent health, demonstrating strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical function,” Dr ​Sean Barbabella wrote in the Tuesday memo, released late in the evening ⁠on Friday, adding Trump is “fully fit to carry out all duties of the Commander-in-Chief ​and Head of State.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Trump’s Tuesday visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Centre, his third ​in 13 months, was closely watched as the White House in the past year had to detail several of the president’s health conditions after pictures revealed at times swollen ankles, bruised hands and a ​blotchy neck.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Shortly after the visit, Trump said “everything &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/trump-near-80-have-annual-physical-amid-scrutiny-recent-ailments-2026-05-26/"&gt;checked out perfectly.“&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Barbabella’s memo cited Trump’s “slight lower leg ​swelling … with improvement from last year” and continued hand bruising, described as “common,” “benign” and “consistent with minor soft tissue ‌irritation related ⁠to frequent handshaking in the setting of aspirin use for cardiovascular prevention.”&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The memo did not address the reason for &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/white-house-says-trump-using-preventative-skin-treatment-neck-rash-offers-no-2026-03-04/"&gt;skin treatment&lt;/a&gt; in March on the president’s neck and did not indicate he underwent another magnetic resonance imaging exam, as he did &lt;a rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" class="link--external" href="https://www.reuters.com/business/healthcare-pharmaceuticals/trump-says-his-mri-was-part-very-standard-physical-2025-11-15/"&gt;in October.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Trump, who turns 80 ​in June and was ​the oldest person ⁠to assume the presidency, frequently casts himself as more energetic and fitter than Joe Biden, his Democratic predecessor, who left office last year ​at age 82 after facing questions about his fitness for the ​job.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Friday’s memo ⁠said the president’s overall cardiac function is normal and that “a comprehensive neurological examination demonstrated normal mental status,” including screenings for depression and anxiety.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;“Preventive counselling was provided, including guidance on diet, recommendation ⁠to ​take a low-dose aspirin, increased physical activity, and continued ​weight loss,” the memo said.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Trump is 6 feet 3 inches tall and weighs 108 kg, the memo ​added.&lt;/p&gt;
