Donald Trump Diagnosed With Chronic Venous Insufficiency; Should You Be Concerned Too?
Last Updated: Chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) occurs when the veins in your legs lose its ability to send blood back to the heart. This leads to swelling as blood pools in the legs. U.S. President Donald Trump has been diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency (CVI) – a vascular condition that impairs blood flow in the legs – after he reportedly noticed unusual swelling in his lower limbs. According to an official health update from his physician, detailed diagnostic tests ruled out more serious concerns such as deep vein thrombosis (DVT). A statement released by the White House said Donald Trump, who is 78, underwent vascular imaging and Doppler ultrasound scans, which confirmed the presence of CVI. Doctors emphasised that the condition is common among older adults, especially those over the age of 70, and is generally considered non-life-threatening when properly managed. What Exactly Is Chronic Venous Insufficiency? Chronic venous insufficiency occurs when the veins in your legs lose their ability to efficiently send blood back to the heart. This causes blood to pool in the lower extremities, leading to swelling, discomfort, and in some cases, visible changes in the skin. The human leg contains three main types of veins: When valves within these veins become weakened or damaged, due to age, genetics, or underlying health issues, they may not close properly, causing blood to flow backwards and collect in the legs. What Are The Potential Complications of Chronic Venous Insufficiency? While CVI often starts with mild symptoms, experts warn that, if left untreated, it can escalate and significantly impact quality of life. If vein pressure becomes too high, tiny blood vessels near the skin can rupture, leading to: In severe cases, CVI may result in persistent swelling (oedema) and scar tissue buildup that traps fluid in surrounding tissues, making healing even more difficult. What Are The Symptoms Of Chronic Venous Insufficiency? Common signs of chronic venous insufficiency include: What Causes Chronic Venous Insufficiency? Doctors classify CVI causes into three categories: Can Chronic Venous Insufficiency Be Managed? While CVI is a chronic condition, lifestyle changes, compression therapy, and in some cases, minimally invasive procedures can help manage symptoms and prevent complications. In more advanced cases, sclerotherapy, laser therapy, or surgical vein repair may be considered.
