We recently reported the news that the appearance of the king's hands is a cause for concern.

Social media users quickly expressed their concern and shock at the appearance of King Charles III's hand after observing a shared snapshot of him taken last December. One user stated the hand "doesn’t even look like his hand," a sentiment echoed by several others, reflecting a sense of alarm among the public.

The discussion turned to speculations about the King's well-being, with a comment suggesting he has "serious health issues" based on the photo. Another user mentioned the possibility that Charles III is "clearly not being treated for some sort of illness."

In an intimate behind-the-scenes moment, King Charles III lightheartedly referred to his own fingers as "sausage fingers" during Coronation rehearsals. This comment elicited a tender response from Prince William and was caught on camera for the BBC documentary showcasing the year leading up to the King's coronation.

The King's self-deprecating humor was on display as he joked with Prince William, who was assisting him with a ceremonial robe. King Charles reassured his son not to worry about the difficulty he faced, attributing it to not having "sausage fingers" like himself, a moment highlighting their warm father-son relationship amidst the grandeur of royal duty.

Dr. Gareth Nye, from the University of Chester, clarified that King Charles's swollen fingers are not a sign of major health concerns but are more likely a symptom of aging. Dr. Nilanjana Bose, a rheumatologist from Houston, Texas, also indicated that the condition of his hands might be normal for him, without any underlying disease.
