President Biden had a small skin lesion with cancerous tissue removed from his chest during his physical exam in February and 'no further treatment is required,' according to the White House physician.
"A number of effective treatments can usually be performed on an outpatient basis, using a local anesthetic with minimal pain," the foundation's website states."Afterwards, most wounds can heal naturally, leaving minimal scarring."
Without prompt treatment, the tumor can grow, becoming more dangerous and require more extensive treatment. Mr. Biden spent about three hours at Walter Reed for his routine physical last month, when the lesion was removed. O'Connor said then that the 80-year-old president remains"fit for duty" and"fully executes all of his responsibilities without any exemptions or accommodations."
The president exhibited no symptoms of"long COVID" after contracting the coronavirus last summer and his atrial fibrillation, or A-fib, remains stable, O'Connor said. Mr. Biden continues to take medication to prevent blood clots and manage his cholesterol, according to the doctor.
