    Default Horrible Disease Turns Man Into Tree

    They appear to be Cutaneous Horns..
    My personal theory is he had the mutation neccasary for their growth but it wasn't till he caught Leprosy that his genes kicked in.
    Looks like the same guy

    And they appear treatable. Though to what level you can judge..




    A couple more less extreme but FUCKING COOL ones..

    You can clutch the past so tightly to your chest that it leaves your arms too full to embrace the present.

    He has a 15 and 16 year old son and daughter respectively, imagine not being able to touch them. Kinda puts your problems in perspective. I just hope there is a charity researching cures or help.

    I don't want to go all emotional but it is pretty fucked up. It definately does put your problems in perspective. Hope they find a cure soon.

    This has been around for a while now. This was one specific eastern european guy and you showed the photos at it's worse. Essentially what you see is an odd hardening of the skin, much like nails over his hands and feet:

    For what I undersant, it's an unfortunate anomaly, non-contagious and more similar to hair, than anything...

    Yea it can be kicked off by Leprosy, the protrusions are actually more like Horns, as horn is made of hair and his appears to be his hair glands. the link you provided is in my OP but you can click within that for an up-date.
