President Donald Trump is expected to undergo the fourth medical exam of his second term on Tuesday as his 80th birthday approaches next month and he faces questions about his health.
The White House announced earlier this month that Trump would receive his annual dental and medical exam on May 26 at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center.
Trump, who turns 80 on June 14, is the oldest person ever elected to the presidency, and his health has been in the spotlight in recent months. He has experienced bruising on his hands, swelling in his lower legs and a rash on his neck.
The president and his doctors say he is in good health.
"I feel the same as I felt 50 years ago," Trump said May 4 at a White House event. "I'm not a senior. I'm far younger than a senior."
Trump attributes the bruising to his aspirin intake, which he said is more than his doctor recommends. Aspirin can help prevent blood clots by thinning https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/politics/2026/05/25/donald-trump-health-medical-exam-walter-reed-age/90249981007/the blood.
