Donald Trump has a recurring bruise on the back of his right hand. It has been seen in photos and videos many times. The White House says it is nothing serious. But doctors, journalists, and ordinary people are not convinced.
A medical expert with a doctorate said the bruise looks like it came from an IV. He explained that the most likely cause would be an IV diuretic. This is a medicine used to treat congestive heart failure. That condition happens when the heart is too weak to pump blood properly. It leads to swelling in the ankles and legs, shortness of breath, and fluid buildup in the body. Patients often need IV treatment to manage it.
🚨BREAKING: A medical professional with a doctorate in his field says Trump is showing evidence of congestive heart failure.
He says the bruise on his hand is likely from an IV diuretic, commonly prescribed for this disease. Do you agree it’s possible?

This connection is why so many people are alarmed. If Trump is receiving IV diuretics, it would mean he is hiding a serious health problem.

Concerns about Trump’s health did not start this week. In July, reporters asked the White House about his swollen ankles and the marks on his hand. Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt said Trump has chronic venous insufficiency. She said this is a common and mostly harmless condition for older people. She also claimed the bruises came from “soft tissue irritation from frequent handshaking, and the use of aspirin.”
That explanation was not convincing for many critics. They argued that aspirin can cause bruising, but it does not explain why the bruise appears in the same place again and again. Some mocked the idea that simple handshakes could create a recurring mark like that.
The timing makes the story even more suspicious. Careful observers noticed that the bruise often appears around the 24th of the month. That pattern suggests Trump could be receiving a regular monthly infusion.
This has also turned into a debate about fairness and transparency. Critics say that if President Biden showed the same marks, the media would treat it as a national emergency. “If this were Joe Biden, clowns like @JakeTapper would make it BREAKING NEWS. But with Trump? Silence,” one critic posted.
Each new photo sparks more questions. Some believe Trump is covering the marks with heavy makeup. Others point to his swollen ankles and say it looks like much more than a minor vein issue. The lack of clear answers only fuels more suspicion.
The White House has not addressed the latest speculation. But the silence is adding to the doubts. A president’s health is not a private matter. If Trump is hiding congestive heart failure, the public has a right to know.
