First Lady Jill Biden on Friday was seen publicly for the first time since undergoing foot surgery, wearing a walking boot while she joined her husband, President Joe Biden, as the couple boarded Marine One en route to Camp David for the weekend.
Wearing a white dress and a sneaker on her right foot, Dr. Biden, 70, donned a medical boot on her left, supporting herself with a crutch under her right arm.
President Biden, 78, could be seen assisting her as she walked ahead of him to board the aircraft.
The outing was the first time Dr. Biden has been seen since she underwent a successful medical procedure late last month, when the White House announced she had "debris" removed from a wound in her foot after stepping on an unknown object on the beach in Hawaii.
"The First Lady underwent a successful procedure on her left foot to flush out debris from a puncture wound," Michael LaRosa, the first lady's spokesman, said in a statement issued following the procedure. "After inspection of the wound by medical staff, it is unclear what object caused the puncture. The wound is now clean, free of infection and it is anticipated that it will heal nicely."
President Biden joined his wife at the facility while she underwent the procedure...the White House had announced that Dr. Biden had sustained her injury during an official visit to Hawaii... "Last weekend, prior to her two official events in Hawaii, the First Lady stepped on an object on the beach which became lodged in her left foot," LaRosa said in a statement issued in July. "She will undergo a procedure today at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center to remove the object. The President will join her."

Ummm...and why is she supporting her right side while her left foot is injured? She cant be this stupid.
Oops. my bad. i guess that works.
Remember when Hillary and McCain wore them several years back? Something’s afoot!
She’s a doctor, y’know...
“Dr.Biden”...please.
The political class seems to have a lot of foot problems the past few years.
“Ummm...and why is she supporting her right side while her left foot is injured? She cant be this stupid.”
IIRC John Wayne and Robert Mithchum had this discussion at the end of EL DORADO.
Ride, boldly ride.
Yes she is.
It is more natural to put a crutch or cane on the opposite side of an injured leg. This is because you swing your opposite arm when you step with your bad leg. That way you can transfer your weight to your good side. It makes for a less Tiny Tim like gait.
She probably kicked the dog too hard.
Maybe she stepped on a glass Crack Pipe.
Not supposed to leave those things lying on the floor.
We’ll see if she wears it on the wrong foot next time. :)
Face diapers on except for the Marines.
The first family on display for all the world to see.
According to my physical therapist, that’s how do it
Doesn’t feel right to me, but...
