<p>A viral rumor is going around TikTok that President Donald Trump only has four days to live, but it isn't true.</p>
<p>Trump was recently diagnosed with chronic venous insufficiency that has caused swelling in his lower legs. The White House physician described the condition as "benign and common," and the White House said it is common for people in their 70s. (Trump turned 79 years old on June 14.)</p>
<p>Several videos on TikTok say the president only has four days left, some with hundreds of thousands of likes. There is no indication that is true.</p>
<p>"The president remains in excellent health," White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt said at the July 17 briefing, where she announced the condition. She also told reporters he wasn't in any pain.</p>
