Donald Trump, now 79, recently became the oldest president ever inaugurated in U.S. history. While his age has raised concerns, Trump and his team insist he’s in good health. In April, White House physician Dr. Sean Barbabella reported the former president is physically and cognitively fit, citing no abnormalities in key scans and detailing his current medications, including cholesterol and cardiac prevention drugs.

Still, public scrutiny persists. Trump’s hands, often photographed with visible bruises and wrinkles, have raised questions. The White House attributes the bruising to frequent handshaking, with Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt emphasizing Trump’s active public engagement.

Doctors like Dr. Ola Otulana say the bruising appears consistent with superficial contusions, common among older adults due to fragile skin and blood vessels. He notes medications like blood thinners could also contribute but sees “no immediate red flags.”

Meanwhile, social media users speculate about a possible catheter after images from a UFC event circulated. Though unconfirmed, the viral post fueled further debate. Experts dismissed the claim as unlikely based on clinical norms.

Whether cosmetic or clinical, Trump’s visible aging continues to spark conversation—fitting for a figure who’s always been under the microscope.
