Donald Trump Diagnosed with Chronic Venous Insufficiency

President Donald Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI), a condition affecting blood flow in the legs

India Today reported the diagnosis on July 18, 2025, citing medical experts familiar with the matter

CVI occurs when leg veins fail to circulate blood properly back to the heart, often leading to swelling, pain, or varicose veins

Common symptoms include heaviness in legs, cramping, skin changes, and visible vein bulging

CVI can be caused by age, sedentary lifestyle, obesity, or past blood clots in the legs

While not life-threatening, untreated CVI can lead to leg ulcers, chronic pain, or infections

Trump is undergoing conservative therapy, including lifestyle changes and compression support
