Trump admits undergoing MRI scan during Walter Reed medical center trip
Donald Trump confirms an MRI scan during a recent trip to medical center
President Donald Trump revealed that he underwent an MRI scan during a recent visit to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center; this marks the second time he has provided a reason for his second medical exam this year, sparking concerns about the president’s health.
The 79-year-old previously refused to say why he received the MRI during the Walter Reed visit earlier this month.
Meanwhile, Trump told reporters aboard Air Force One Monday “I did, I got an MRI. It was perfect.”
The president declared that his doctors offered reporters a very conclusive report of the exam, but the White House has not disclosed the reason for his unusual second visit.
He said, “I think they have you very conclusive-nobody has ever given you reports like I gave you. And if I didn't think it was going to be good either, I would let you know negatively, I wouldn't return. I’d do something ....”
The White House announced that Trump underwent a health examination for swelling in his legs and was diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiencies-a condition where the veins don't work as they should.
However, approximately 150,000 people are diagnosed with it each year.
On the contrary, Trump has faced scrutiny over regular bruising on his right hand that he has occasionally appeared to cover up with full make up coverage.
Additionally, doubts have been evolving about the complete transparency of the examination.
