President Trump is scheduled to undergo a "routine yearly checkup" on Friday at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center, as confirmed by White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt. This will be Trump's second visit to the facility for such an exam within six months, coming shortly after his annual physical examination in April, where he had reported feeling "in very good shape," according to The Hill, HuffPost, and CBS News.

During the upcoming checkup, Trump is expected to meet with troops and may consider traveling to the Middle East afterward, as he has expressed intentions related to a peace agreement with Hamas. Concerns about the president’s health have been prevalent, particularly following reports of a vein condition and visible bruising on his hands, which has led some to speculate about his overall fitness, according to The Jakarta Post, India Times, and ABC News.

The president, who is 79 years old, has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency, a condition that affects blood flow in the legs and could explain his recent symptoms, such as leg swelling and bruising. Still, the White House has maintained that Trump remains in "excellent overall health." In April, doctors evaluated him as completely fit to fulfill presidential duties with no serious anomalies detected, according to HuffPost, CBS News, and The Jakarta Post.
