A large bruise was discovered on the right hand of President Donald Trump, leading to various speculations about its cause.
U.S. media, including NBC News, reported this on the 25th (local time).
The previous day, President Trump held a summit with President Macron at the White House.
On U.S. social networking services (SNS), the photos and videos of President Trump's remarks during the publicly held summit have sparked interest in the bruise on the back of his right hand.
Online, there are various speculations, including those about intravenous injection marks and vitamin deficiencies.
Some raised concerns that the 78-year-old President Trump has not disclosed independent health records, suggesting he may be concealing health issues related to his age.
A user on the U.S. internet site Reddit mentioned Mitch McConnell, a retired senator at the age of 83, stating, "I saw such symptoms before McConnell started falling," and claimed, "Trump is old and not in good health."
There were also speculations that a power struggle handshake between President Trump and President Macron caused the bruise, as the two leaders engaged in a 17-second handshake showdown the previous day.
The White House, in a statement from the Spokesperson, explained, "President Trump is a person for the people," adding, "The bruise on President Trump's hand is due to working all day and shaking hands (with people)."
