Donald Trump's health status has been a topic of discussion after he was seen with a bruise he tried to hide during a visit. In response to the speculation, the United States government has provided an explanation regarding the appearance of bruises on the Republican president. The doctor mentioned: 'President Trump is a man of the people. Trump looks very healthy, but he is likely taking aspirin or clopidogrel.'
On social media, this incident was compared to the so-called 'sausage fingers' of King Charles III, after noticeable swelling in the hands of the British monarch was observed following the death of Queen Elizabeth II. Dr. Alejandro Macías explained that this condition could be related to arthritis or organ failure. However, these symptoms do not seem to be the same affecting Donald Trump, as he does not show swelling in his hands or signs of a condition similar to that of King Charles III.
The White House mentioned that the bruises on Trump's hands could be a result of his constant work and daily handshakes. This is not the first time bruises have been observed on the president's hands. There have been at least two similar cases since last year, and Trump has attributed this to the handshakes he gives to thousands of people daily.
The presence of bruises on Trump's hands could be related to his age, 78 years, according to experts. These bruises are common in older adults when small blood vessels near the skin break. Mayo Clinic has indicated that the skin becomes thinner with age, making bruising more likely. Additionally, the use of medications to prevent heart conditions, such as aspirin or clopidogrel, could also contribute to the appearance of bruises in older individuals.
In summary, although Donald Trump has not openly mentioned any health condition, the presence of bruises on his hands could be a side effect of his age, constant exposure, and possible preventive medication.
