Trump Diagnosed with Chronic Venous Insufficiency

President Donald Trump, 79, has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a condition where veins in the legs have difficulty returning blood to the heart, leading to blood pooling and swelling. This diagnosis follows a recent medical evaluation prompted by mild swelling in his lower legs. The White House announced that tests revealed no evidence of deep vein thrombosis or arterial disease, and an echocardiogram showed normal cardiac structure and function. The president remains in excellent health and continues to perform his duties without discomfort. CVI is a common condition in older adults and is typically managed through lifestyle changes such as leg elevation, exercise, and, in some cases, the use of compression stockings.
