White House Releases Trump Health Report

US President Donald Trump is in excellent health and fully fit to serve, according to a medical report released by the White House following his recent visit to Walter Reed military medical Center. The report, authored by presidential physician Sean Barbabella, noted swelling in Trump's lower legs and bruising on his arms but described both as mild and unremarkable.

The visit was Trump's fourth hospitalization during his second term and his third in the past 13 months.

Barbabella said the president exhibits "strong cardiac, pulmonary, neurological and overall physical function". He described the swelling in the lower extremities as mild and showing year-on-year improvement, and said bruising of the hands is common in patients taking low-dose aspirin for cardiovascular prevention, particularly when combined with frequent handshaking.

The report also recorded normal heart function and an uneventful neurological examination, including assessments for depression and anxiety. According to the published data, Trump stands 190 cm tall and weighs 108 kg.

His physician has advised him to continue losing weight, increase physical activity, follow dietary recommendations and maintain his aspirin regimen.
