The 78-year-old slipped while playing with his German Shepherd, Major, on Saturday. After the fall, he visited an orthopedist in Delaware for an examination on Sunday afternoon. According to a statement from his doctor Kevin O’Connor, a CT scan “confirmed hairline (small) fractures of President-elect Biden’s lateral and intermediate cuneiform bones, which are in the mid-foot.”
The New York Post notes that Biden could even be seen limping as he left the doctor’s office to head to an imaging center for the CT scan, though he walked without a crutch or other help. “It is anticipated that he will likely require a walking boot for several weeks,” O’Connor said. Meanwhile, Trump, who has yet to concede, reacted to the news and tweeted Sunday, “Get well soon!”
