(MENAFN- Kuwait News Agency (KUNA)) WASHINGTON, July 17 (KUNA) -- White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said that President Donald Trump was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency after suffering mild swelling in his lower legs in the recent weeks.
The President, 79, is fine but, as a precaution, he had to undergo a regular comprehensive examination, including diagnostic vascular studies and an echocardiogram with the White House Medical Unit, Leavitt told reporters on Thursday.
The results of all lab tests were within normal limits; it is a common condition, particularly in people over the age of 70, she said, citing a note by Trump's physician Sean Barbabella.
There were no signs of deep vein thrombosis (DVT), arterial disease, heart failure, renal impairment, or systemic illness, Leavitt affirmed. (end)
