A new dark blue bruise appeared on the right hand of 79-year-old U.S. President Donald Trump during his meeting in the Oval Office with South Korean President Lee Jae-myung on Monday, raising new health concerns. Previous bruises had appeared on Trump’s hands in recent months, often concealed with makeup or by covering them with his other hand. The latest bruise was noted on Sunday while playing golf with former baseball player Roger Clemens, whom Trump later invited to the Baseball Hall of Fame. White House Press Secretary Caroline Levitt explained that Trump’s hand bruises are “consistent” with minor irritation caused by frequent handshakes and his aspirin use as part of his cardiovascular preventive program. In statements to the Daily Mail, the President’s doctor, Dr.

Sean Barpapilla, confirmed that recent photos showed “minor bruising on the back of the hand, consistent with soft tissue irritation from repeated handshakes and aspirin use.” Former White House physician and current Congressman Dr. Ronny Jackson stated, “President Donald Trump is the healthiest president this nation has ever seen.” He added that Trump is in “better mental and physical shape than ever,” noting ongoing consultations with his current doctor and medical team at the White House.
