The president, who had been experiencing swelling in his legs, received his diagnosis that month, and the White House disclosed the report. Now that it\u2019s public knowledge, we have the breakdown of what chronic venous insufficiency is and what it means for Trump below.<\/p>\n<h2>What Was Donald Trump\u2019s 2025 Health Diagnosis?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-3\">Trump was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, according to a memo released by his physician, Dr. Sean Barbabella, in July 2025.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-4\">The president underwent diagnostic vascular studies and an ultrasound after experiencing swelling in his legs. White House Press Secretary <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/feature\/who-is-karoline-leavitt-5365815\/\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\"><strong>Karoline Leavitt<\/strong> <\/a>told reporters on July 17, 2025, that some bruising has been visible on the back of Trump\u2019s hand, which she attributed to his\u00a0\u201cfrequent handshaking\u201d with people in addition to his use of aspirin.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-5\">\u201cThis is consistent with minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin, which is taken as part of a standard cardiovascular prevention regimen,\u201d <a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/feature\/how-old-is-karoline-leavitt-age-5365765\/\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">Leavitt<\/a> insisted.<\/p>\n<h2>What Is Chronic Venous Insufficiency?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-6\">Chronic venous insufficiency is a health condition that occurs when a person\u2019s veins in the legs struggle to let blood flow, which can be a result of damaged valves in the veins, according to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.hopkinsmedicine.org\/health\/conditions-and-diseases\/chronic-venous-insufficiency\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" data-analytics-trigger=\"article-body-link\">Johns Hopkins Medicine<\/a>. If left untreated, a patient can have pain, swelling, skin changes, varicose veins and other health issues.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-7\">The health condition affects about one in 20 adults.<\/p>\n<h2>How Is Trump\u2019s Overall Health?<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-8\">Dr. Barbarella wrote in the memo, \u201cPresident Trump remains in excellent health.\u201d So, it appears the president\u2019s chronic venous insufficiency is the only glaring health condition he\u2019s living with.<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-9\">Elsewhere in the memo, Barbarella indicated, \u201cImportantly, there was no evidence of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) or arterial disease\u201d in the Republican and that Trump\u2019s lab testing was all \u201cwithin normal limits.\u201d<\/p>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-10\">There were also \u201cno signs of heart failure, renal impairment, or systemic illness were identified\u201d after Trump underwent an echocardiogram.<\/p>\n<h2>How Old Is Trump? His Age Now<\/h2>\n<p id=\"content-paragraph-11\">Trump is currently 79 years old. He will turn 80 on June 14, 2026.<\/p>\n<p><!-- CONTENT END 1 -->\n\t\t<\/div>\n<p><br \/>\n<br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/hollywoodlife.com\/feature\/donald-trump-health-chronic-venous-insufficiency-5429125\/\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Image Credit: Getty Images Donald Trump is living with a condition that affects his veins, his physician revealed in July 2025.
