He’s probably on IVs for whatever treatment he’s receiving. I’m just wondering why they’re using the back of his hand instead of his forearm. It would be much easier to hide there.

Other veins probably aren't viable. It happens when you have a chronic illness and have to have IV's. After a while you blow them and have to use the ones on the hand. My guess anyway.

Veins are gone. I think it might be dialysis.

Usually, a dialysis shunt would be placed in the forearm rather than the hand. In an emergency, a Sheldon catheter might be used instead; this is a temporary tube placed in a large vein in the neck, chest, or groin to quickly access the bloodstream. So no. None of that is what we see.

My grandmother had Hemodialysis and her shunt was placed in her lower arm close to her wrist and it left her with a similar bruise. Of course, idk what he has, but I have seen this before.

Agree. But a shunt is visible as a shunt.

If he was on dialysis, he would have a fistula or a neck catheter in which case there would be no need for IV blood draws they would take the blood directly from the fistula or the cath. That was the best part of dialysis for me, no more pokes now that I’m transplanted I get poked all the time.

Likely he's taking anticoagulants to prevent more of the smallish cva's he's had that make him clumsy (spoken as an NP)

Speaking as someone with collapsing veins... sometimes the hand or the foot is the only place... and with those ankles, I would guess the feet are a no-go as well.

Been there... done that. The first time I needed an IV, I was 18 years old. I came out of the hospital looking like someone had taken a tire iron to both of my forearms from all of the attempts.

Having had multiple IVs and blood draws over the years, if your vascular systems is overwhelmed &/or you're dehydrated, sometimes the only place is the back of the hand.

However, there shouldn't be that much bruising unless the person wielding the needle is inexperienced or if he's on blood thinners.
aug 25, 2025, 4:20 pm • 4 0 • view
Blood thinners I agree. Inexperienced people treating the President, I can’t believe.
aug 25, 2025, 4:29 pm • 2 0 • view
Blood thinners...no amount of pressure will stop the bruising. Eventually, the veins will wall themselves off after too much use. You can take blood out, but can't infuse through them, so they move to larger veins in the hands, side of wrist...ankles but too much swelling there...or a perm port.

Yeah, I agree, but I doubt that’s what caused the bruises. If it were, Karoline Leavitt wouldn’t be saying they’re from too many handshakes.

True. But it’s caused by IV’s. So something is going on.

Intravenous drug applications will cause this too. I used to get bruises like this during chemo treatments.

He may have removed the pressure band aid too soon. Some people get impatient and end up with that kind of bruising.

The saphenous vein could be an option for IV access, but with significantly swollen ankles, finding a needle long enough to reach it or even locating it might be a challenge. 🤣 (not a doctor)

The much loved Queen had cancer. Mad King Orange Thing has dementia and who knows what else. The Alzheimer's drugs Kisunla and Leqembi are both given by IV infusion. It's time for someone to keep a calendar of hand bruises to see if the timing is consistent with dosing with one of those drugs.

I don't think she did (have cancer). It was never announced. Boris Johnson claimed it in his memoirs, but he's an attention seeking twat. Her cause of death on her DC is "old age".

I must agree. Never read anything about the cause of her passing.

Leqembi is administered every two weeks for 18 months (my mom gets Leqembi infusions). Regardless of what IV he might be getting, I wonder why they’re using his hands (??)

The orange nazi having circulation issues and edema in his lower extremities, means his brain isn't receiving proper blood flow. He'll probably form clots and stroke out. I've never wished harm on anyone but ...come on clots, do your thing!
