USA's President Donald Trump had his annual health check on Friday. A medical report is awaited to be made public in the coming days. "I felt that I was in very good shape, says the 78-year-old himself.

Trump spent a total of five hours at the hospital before heading to Air Force One to fly home to Florida.

A good heart, a good soul, a very good soul, says the president himself, on board the presidential plane a few hours after the doctor's visit.

The doctors gave a few tips on how the president can improve his health by changing his lifestyle, Trump says without elaborating on what it would be. Trump also says that he took a cognitive test and claims to have answered all the questions correctly.

A medical report from the examination is expected to be made public soon, according to the White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt.

Trump, who often questioned predecessor Joe Biden's and mental capacity, has previously been sparse with details from his health examinations.

The promised report from Friday's visit would be the first public information about Trump's health since the assassination attempt against him in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July.

Trump is three years younger than Biden. But on the inauguration day, Trump was five months older than Biden was when he was sworn in.
