Not a "medical professional" like the meth-smoking whores in Milam, TX, but maybe it has something to do with his cankles?

What Are Cankles?

The term “cankles” describes legs and ankles that appear as one, instead of there being definition between the two. Learn causes and ways to treat cankles if needed.

What Is Edema​

Edema is swelling caused by an abnormal buildup of fluid in the tissue. When it affects the arms and legs, it's called peripheral edema.3 Cankles can be caused by edema in the ankles, which may also affect the feet and legs.4...

Medical Condition​

Sometimes, ankle, foot, or leg swelling can indicate a larger medical problem, such as:
  • Blood clot: A blood clot in the leg can cause swelling as well as symptoms such as pain or tenderness, and skin that is red and/or warm to the touch (along with the swelling or pain).8
  • Venous insufficiency: Blood can gather in the legs when the veins are unable to effectively or efficiently transport enough blood to the feet and back up to the heart. This forces fluid out of the blood vessels and into the surrounding tissue.3
  • Kidney disease: Pressure can build in the blood vessels when the kidneys don't remove enough water and sodium from the body, which can lead to edema in the legs and around the eyes.3
  • Congestive heart failure: If the heart isn't working well, blood flow in the legs can slow, causing blood to back up in the leg veins and fluid to build up in the tissues.9
  • Severe lung conditions: Conditions like emphysema (causes gradual lung tissue damage) can cause high pressure in the lungs and heart, which may lead to edema in the feet and legs.3
  • Low protein levels in the blood: A lack of albumin (a protein) in the blood can cause fluid to leak out of blood vessels more easily. Extreme malnutrition, kidney diseases, and liver diseases can cause low protein in the blood.
  • Liver diseases: Problems with the liver, such as liver cirrhosis (scarring of liver tissue) can cause edema in the abdomen as well as the feet and ankles.
  • Lymphedema: Damage to the lymphatic system, such as removal or destruction of lymph nodes during cancer surgery, can cause fluid to collect in an area like a leg or arm. It could be temporary or develop into a chronic condition.
  • Lipedema: With lipedemia, fat tissue accumulates with an abnormal distribution. It typically involves the hips and buttocks, but can also affect the hip to ankle.10

What is Trump's vein condition and how serious is it?​

"When blood pools in the legs due to chronic venous insufficiency, it can cause swelling like the kind seen in Trump's ankles in recent photographs.

It can also involve pain and itching, or in more serious cases can present with changes to the skin, ulcers, bleeding or deep vein thrombosis - which is blood clotting in the leg.

"It can be associated with serious conditions, but in and of itself it is not a serious condition, and one that is very common," Dr Matthew Edwards, chair of the Department of Vascular Surgery at Wake Forest University, told the BBC.

"People in his age (group), I would say probably somewhere between 10 and 35% of people would have this."

Experts say other risks include being overweight, having a history of blood clots, and having jobs that require patients to be on their feet for long durations."
