Information about President Donald Trump's health status was released by the White House on July 17.
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said that this is a common condition, especially in people over 70 years old. Mr. Trump is 79 years old this year.
The White House said President Trump has undergone a comprehensive check-up after reporting mildleg pain in his leg in recent weeks.
In the memoir, President Sean Barbabella's doctor noted that there was no evidence that he had deep vein thrombosis or artery disease, which are more serious diseases. It is not yet clear when this inspection will take place.
Chronic varicose veins occur when the valves in the veins work properly, causing blood, instead of flowing into the heart to receive oxygen, to accumulate in the lower limbs.
At a press conference at the White House on July 17, White House spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt also confirmed that recent photos showed bruises on the hands of the US President.
This is due to irritation from frequent handshakes and the use of aspirin, a drug commonly used to prevent cardiovascular disease, according to her.
The issue of circulation was not mentioned in Trump's annual health check-up report in April. The April report confirmed that he is not affected in the coming weeks. The report also found that Trump used aspirin to protect his cardiovascular system. The annual health report's conclusion is similar to the report on July 17, affirming that Mr. Trump is "still in great health".
