Donald Trump’s medical results have been a subject of interest and speculation for quite some time. In addition to his hand bruising, which he has been seen trying to cover up with makeup, his cankles have also come under scrutiny.
Back in November 2025, Trump’s hand bruising was a hot topic after he appeared at an NFL game and posed for a picture with Washington Commanders owner Josh Harris. Leavitt, Trump’s spokesperson, dismissed questions about the bruising, attributing it to minor soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking and the use of aspirin as part of his cardiovascular prevention regimen.
Despite the explanations provided, the issue resurfaced in July 2025, with Leavitt defending Trump by highlighting his extensive interactions with the American people. She emphasized his commitment to meeting and shaking hands with more Americans on a daily basis than any other president in history.
In addition to the hand bruising, Trump’s cankles have also raised eyebrows. In a video from February 1, he appeared to be unsteady when arriving in Washington, D.C. Observers noted that his ankles appeared enlarged, with his left ankle appearing larger than his right.
These ongoing speculations about Trump’s medical condition continue to fuel curiosity and debate among the public. As the former president remains in the spotlight, his health and physical appearance remain subjects of interest and scrutiny.
