Here is a screenshot of Barbabella’s memo: 
Over time, this pressure can rupture tiny capillaries, leading to easy bruising, reddish-brown skin discoloration, inflammation, tissue damage, and—even if left untreated—venous ulcers, according to the Cleveland Clinic.
According to the Society for Vascular Surgery, the condition affects as many as 40% of Americans, especially women and those who are middle-aged or older.
During an earlier press conference, Karoline Leavitt noted this is a “common condition, particularly in individuals over the age of 70.” After Trump reported “mild swelling” in his lower legs, he underwent a “comprehensive examination,” and Barbabella found no signs of deep vein thrombosis or arterial disease
“The veins, particularly in the lower extremity, are very thin walled structures and they have valves so that when you stand up, all the blood doesn’t rush to your feet, these valves close, but over time these valves can become dysfunctional,” Dr. Niten Signh, a vascular surgeon at the University of Washington, told NPR.
“Funny everyone is so concerned about [the] health of the president who plays golf and does regular press briefings but no one seemed to care about the guy who wandered off into the Amazon and needed help from the Easter rabbit,” one user wrote.
“The Trump administration is being transparent about the President health unlike the Biden administration where there was none except lies,” said another.
Chronic venous insufficiency occurs when damaged vein valves in the legs can’t effectively return blood to the heart, causing it to pool and elevating pressure in the leg veins
One user was somewhat introspective regarding Trump’s condition, suggesting that Vice President JD Vance could someday be called upon to take over if the president should fall ill.
“This made me realize that I really need to know that JD Vance is as MAGA as [T]rump. Especially when it comes to other nations. It’s easy to assume but it is an honest question,” the user wrote.
