🗞️‘White House Physician Releases Trump Health Update

The report also documented bruising on Trump’s hands, explained as “minor soft

tissue irritation related to frequent handshaking,” and said it was “a common and benign effect of aspirin therapy.” Among the recommendations was a switch to low-dose aspirin, Barbabella’s report said. The White House disclosed last year that Trump had been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a common age-related condition that can cause blood to pool in the legs and lead to swelling. According to the latest medical report, Trump still exhibited slight lower-leg swelling during this year’s examination, but his physician noted that the condition has improved since last year.

Trump Shows Strong Physical Performance Barbabella said the president demonstrated strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological, and overall physical health, with no abnormal findings identified during the comprehensive evaluation. “His demanding daily schedule, including multiple high-level meetings, public engagements, and regular physical activity, continues to support his overall well-being,” Barbabella wrote. Trump also underwent the Montreal Cognitive Assessment, a widely used screening tool for cognitive impairment and dementia. According to his physicians, he scored a perfect 30 out of 30 – matching the results reported during examinations in 2025 and 2018.
