Doctors Find ‘Small Nodule’ in Biden’s Prostate During Routine Exam

A small nodule has been discovered in Joe Biden’s prostate during a routine physical check-up. This is according to a plethora of reports, including one from The New York Times, which indicated that Biden, at the ripe age of 82, required further evaluation after this discovery.

ABC News has reported that this “small nodule” could be a benign lump or something far more severe. It will require further testing to ascertain the cause, but let’s not forget the reality is that for a man of Biden’s advancing age, prostate issues are not uncommon.

In 2021 alone, the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention reported 236,659 new cases of prostate cancer, making it the most common cancer diagnosed in men that year.

The problem is that Biden’s health has been a concern throughout his presidency. In February 2023, then-President Biden underwent surgery to remove a cancerous lesion from his chest. This was not his first encounter with cancer; before taking office, Biden had several non-melanoma skin cancers successfully removed.

White House physician Dr. Kevin O’Connor confirmed that the lesion was a basal cell carcinoma and assured that all cancerous tissue was successfully removed. But remember, basal cell carcinoma lesions, while they don’t typically “spread” or metastasize, do have the potential to increase in size, resulting in a more significant issue and increased challenges for surgical removal.

Biden’s age and health have long been a significant concern. His disastrous debate performance last year, which raised serious questions about his mental acuity, led him to step down as the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee. Biden, having left office as the oldest serving president in American history, has maintained a relatively low profile since his departure in January.
