Kishida has suffered plunging public support over his handling of a controversy involving his governing party's ties with a religious group, resignations of ministers and top aides following a political funding scandal, gaffes and discriminatory remarks against sexual minorities.
His stuffy nose while speaking at meetings, parliamentary sessions and news conferences has been cited by local media, including some that speculated it was an aftereffect of COVID-19, which he contracted last summer.
He told reporters Friday that since he had been diagnosed having chronic sinusitis with polyps, he was treated with medicine but decided to undergo surgery ''in order to be in perfect health.''
On Friday, Kishida's Cabinet approved a policy to maximize the use of nuclear power as green energy, reversing the country's post-Fukushima nuclear phaseout plan. (AP)
