La insuficiencia venosa crónica afecta principalmente a personas mayores y puede comprometer seriamente la calidad de vida si no se trata a tiempo

Overview

  • The president received the diagnosis after noticing mild swelling in his lower legs over recent weeks.
  • Dr. Sean Barbabella’s team performed Doppler ultrasounds and vascular studies that ruled out deep vein thrombosis and arterial disease.
  • Officials described the condition as benign and prevalent among people over 70 and affirmed that Trump’s overall health remains excellent.
  • Medical advisers recommended conservative measures—compression stockings, leg elevation and regular exercise—to manage symptoms and prevent progression.
  • White House spokespeople attributed recent bruises on Trump’s hands to frequent handshakes and his aspirin regimen rather than any systemic illness.
