President Trump Undergoes Routine Annual Physical Ahead of 80th BirthdayPreviousNext

U.S. President Donald Trump, approaching his 80th birthday, underwent his routine annual physical and dental examination at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, marking his fourth medical visit during his second term. The White House described the visit as part of regular preventive care and maintained that Trump remains in strong physical and cognitive health. Despite visible signs such as bruising and swelling linked to chronic venous insufficiency and aspirin use, officials have characterized these conditions as benign. Trump shared on social media that his exam results were perfect, while some medical analysts have called for greater transparency regarding his health.
