Joe Biden fractured his right foot while playing with one of his dogs. The President-elect got an injury discovered in a scan on Sunday and the doctor says that it will likely require him to wear a boot for several weeks.

Recently, Biden hurt his foot with an injury on Saturday and visited an orthopedist in Newark, Delaware, on Sunday afternoon. The medical staff offered a detailed CT scan as initial x-rays did not show any obvious fracture, Kevin O’Connor, said in a statement. O’Connor said the subsequent scan found tiny fractures of two small bones in the middle of his right foot. It is anticipated that he will likely require a walking boot for several weeks." Fractures are a concern generally as people age, but Biden’s appears to be a relatively mild one based on his doctor’s statement and the planned treatment.  The reporters covering the president-elect couldn't afford the opportunity to see Biden despite multiple requests. Later, while leaving the doctor's office to head to an imaging center for his CT scan, Biden was visibly limping, though he walked without a crutch or other aid.

Last December he released a doctor's report which said that he takes a statin to keep his cholesterol at healthy levels, but his doctor described him as “healthy, vigorous” and “fit to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency.”
