Joe Biden injured his ankle Saturday while playing with his dog, his campaign says.<\/p>\n

“On Saturday Nov. 28, President-elect Biden slipped while playing with his dog Major, and twisted his ankle. Out of an abundance of caution, he will be examined this afternoon by an orthopedist.”<\/em><\/p>\n

Biden’s physician, Dr. Kevin O\u2019Connor initially said, \u201cPresident-elect Joe Biden sustained a sprain of his right foot. Initial X-rays are reassuring that there is no obvious fracture and he will be getting an additional CT for more detailed imaging.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Dr. O\u2019Connor later released the following statement: \u201cFollow-up CT scan confirmed hairline (small) fractures of President-elect Biden\u2019s lateral and intermediate cuneiform bones, which are in the mid-foot. It is anticipated that he will likely require a walking boot for several weeks.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

President Donald Trump quote-tweeted a “get well” message to the former Vice President.<\/p>\n
