Donald Trump’s Hand Sparks Fresh Health Concerns After Foundation Spotted
Donald Trump’s health is once again under scrutiny after a recent photo showed his hand covered with what appeared to be foundation. The image, circulating on X, revealed a pale patch on his skin, fueling renewed speculation.
Bruises and Past Concerns
Since early in his presidency, Trump’s hands have been the subject of discussion. Back in February, a yellow bruise was noticed during a meeting with French President Emmanuel Macron. More dark marks appeared in March, and by April, the issue resurfaced. At the time, White House officials dismissed it, calling the marks a sign of his tireless work ethic.
Public Reaction
Online users voiced worries, with one asking: “What health conditions could make Trump’s hands look like that?” Another commented: “Bruised hands, pale skin, swollen ankles — what’s going on with my president?”
Medical Explanation
Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt later confirmed Trump has chronic venous insufficiency, a condition causing swelling and circulation issues. Doctors ruled out deep vein thrombosis and arterial disease, but CVI requires ongoing lifestyle management, exercise, and treatment.
