United States President Donald Trump’s health is once again under scrutiny after a rash appeared on his neck during his last public appearance on Monday, March 2, 2026.
The president’s personal physician has now clarified that the neck rash is nothing to worry about, adding that it was the result of a cream Trump used for his preventative skin treatment.
In an interview with CNNSaid Dr. Sean Barbabella: “President Trump uses a very common cream on the right side of his neck, which is a preventative skin treatment. »
He added: “The president is taking the treatment for a week and the redness should last for a few weeks. »
The doctor did not specify the underlying skin condition.
The neck rash appeared just weeks after the 79-year-old was seen with bruising on the backs of his hands, which he linked to frequent handshakes and a higher daily dose of aspirin.
President Trump’s doctor said he remains in excellent overall health.
Social media users expressed mixed reactions. One user wrote: “This guy is breaking down before our eyes,” while another said the redness was normal for someone his age.
