HM the King's condition is generally good : doctors
His Majesty the King's condition is generally good and he has more strength on his right side, particularly in his leg.
The King is now able to stand with the help of a walking stick, according to an announcement from the Royal Household Bureau.
Doctors said a lump of tissue found in 1999 in HM's large intestine had become infected, which was causing pain in his right side and had left him with a fever.
The doctors then issued medication that left the King feeling better.
