Saudi Press Agency reported that the medical tests are due to lung inflammation. Earlier in 2024, he was diagnosed with inflammation in the lungs and the medical team at the Royal Clinics decided that he would undergo a treatment plan consisting of antibiotics.

There were earlier reports back then about the king experiencing "high temperature and joint pain".

King Salman, 88, the custodian of Islam's holiest sites, became Saudi Arabia ruler in 2015 after spending more than 2 1/2 years as the crown prince and deputy premier.
