Karoline Leavitt released a physician's note explaining President Donald Trump's visible bruising and leg swelling after photos sparked health concerns.

The White House explains that the president suffers from chronic venous insufficiency in the legs, a benign condition typical in people over 70, but justifies the bruises on his hands as "shaking too many hands".

Leavitt said Trump noted "mild swelling in his lower legs," which prompted the White House medical team to evaluate him. They concluded that Trump has chronic venous insufficiency -- a condition in which there isn't adequate blood flow in the veins in the legs. This can cause the blood to pool, causing swelling in the lower legs.

The Jeffrey Epstein controversy showed no signs of quieting as a GOP senator joined calls for all information to be released by the Trump administration, as Democrats protested the GOP’s advancing of two controversial nominees with a dramatic walkout.

The White House clarified President Trump's health condition amid rumors, citing benign issues with leg swelling and hand bruising. Tests showed Trump suffers from chronic venous insufficiency, a common condition in older adults.
