Title: Concerns Arise Over Biden’s Health After Prostate Nodule Discovery
Date: [Insert Date]
In a recent routine physical examination, former President Joe Biden was found to have a small nodule in his prostate, as confirmed by ABC News. A spokesperson for Biden stated that the nodule "necessitated further evaluation,” but they did not specify whether this evaluation is ongoing or immediate. No additional information about the health of the 82-year-old leader was provided.
Joe Biden has had a history of skin cancer; in February 2023, while still in office, he underwent removal of cancerous lesions from his chest, and prior to his presidency, he had several non-melanoma skin cancers excised. In a physical exam conducted a year before the 2024 election, he was deemed “fit to serve,” despite exiting the race to allow then-Vice President Kamala Harris to take the Democratic nomination. Harris ultimately lost to Donald Trump in the general election held in November 2024.
According to Medical News Today, a prostate nodule, which typically feels firm and raised like a knuckle on a finger, can be benign or cancerous. Prostate cancer is prevalent in the U.S., with one in nine men diagnosed during their lifetime. The average diagnosis age is 66, and approximately 60% of cases arise in men aged 65 and older.
Biden left office on January 20, 2025, making him the oldest sitting president in U.S. history. He will celebrate his 83rd birthday on November 20, 2025. The discovery of this nodule raises health concerns at a critical time, as the former president’s age makes him more susceptible to prostate issues. Further updates on Biden’s health are awaited.
