Health Update: President Lula’s Continued Treatment Following Brain Bleed Incident
Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva is set to undergo an additional medical procedure following an earlier fall at home that caused a minor brain hemorrhage in October 2024.
This fall resulted in trauma to the back of his head and a small bleed in the temporal-frontal region of his brain.
Although Lula’s recovery has progressed, his doctors have emphasized ongoing monitoring and repeat tests to ensure his health remains stable.
Lula, 78, had to cancel international travel, including attendance at the BRICS summit in Russia, following medical advice to avoid long-haul flights.
Despite these challenges, he has been able to carry out regular duties and has participated in activities remotely.
The exact details and timing of the additional medical procedure have not been fully disclosed, but his team remains optimistic about his overall condition.
