Donald Trump appeared with heavy bruising on his left hand during a speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos. The US President has been seen with immense bruising on his hands over recent weeks, with the White House recently revealing the reason behind it.

Earlier today in Switzerland, Mr Trump addressed world leaders and officials after the official signing ceremony for the Board of Peace, with his heavily bruised hand visible to all. The dark marks on his hand have reignited fresh health fears about the 79-year-old, who is the oldest US president to take the oath of office.

The US President underwent ultrasounds and a comprehensive exam after he noticed mild swelling on one of his hands.
