I  got interested in this medical anomaly.., So mejo na derailed ako and I found an article of a rare medical anomaly.

It's Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva. It makes your muscles, tendons, and ligaments turned to bones.


It's called Diphallia., This medical anomaly is for males only.. Where one male possesses 2 penises. Most men use it for sexual intercourse.


Lewandowsky-Lutz Dysplasia. It is a very rare skin disorder which is hereditary and is characterized by the formation of warts on the human skin. It normally affects the feet and hands and usually occurs between 1 to 20 years of age. There is no known cure and the warts can only be removed through surgery

Cutaneous Porphyria
When a person affected by this disease is exposed to direct sunlight, his urine can turn black, brown, pink or purple.

Progeria
This diseased is characterized by premature aging where a young individual can manifest the features and look like an aged person. Medical experts believe that this odd medical condition has something to do genetic mutation and is not considered hereditary. There are no known cures for this disease and the young sufferers generally survive only up to their 13th birthday.


Proteus Syndrome
This medical condition results to abnormal growth of the bones and skins, and is generally associated with the growth of tumors. There are only about 200 recorded cases worldwide since the discovery of the disease in 1979.

Thanks sa response.

yung eyeball ba mismo ang gumagalaw? or lids?

Thanks docs for the answer.

Follow-up question lang. So ok lang naman kahit di na magfast for annual exam right kasi usually CBC lang naman? Also, can I just tell the nurse na i-compensate nalang nila if ever yung mga numbers dahil hindi ako nagfast? hehe 

hehehe! kapag nagpapa-annual PE ka, yeah, wala naman usually fasting. :-) pero kapag nagpa executive check-up ka, you will be admitted and during your initial hospital stay, ipagfafast ka rin kasi may mga further blood tests pa silang gagawin depende sa package ng executive check up mo. :-)

nagawa ko na yan ng walang check-in sa hospital. pila pila lang sa mga tests, in one day.

JUN,

Your symptom might be called photopsia. Maraming pwedeng dahilan. Pwede nagmimigraine ka, pwede rin may mga vitreous detachment or retinal detachment. Yung last two, mas common sa mga matatanda. May accompanying floaters din na nakikita sa mga condition na to. So possible na migraine lang yan. Sumakit ba ulo mo?

Anyway, magpacheck-up ka na sa Ophthalmologist. Some conditions sa eye that present with photopsia ay mga medical emergencies. :-)

MARFZ,

ang mga twitching sa eyelids mo are most commonly caused by pagod, stress, puyat, sobrang kape, etc. Remedy? Iwasan ang mga yan.

However, if iniwasan mo na yung mga namention at persistent pa rin ang pagtwitch ng eyelids mo, tapos malala siya like nakasarado na totally yung mata mo dahil sa twitches, shempre you need to see an Ophthalmologist.

Yung classmate ko before, although di naman common, nagkaganun din siya. Hindi nawala sa pahinga at pag-iwas sa mga risk factors. Nagpacheck up siya, at nakita na may Facial Nerve defect siya. So inoperahan pa siya sa US para lang umayos na yung karamdaman niya.

ELGIMIKERO,

If wala kang jaundice (paninilaw ng balat) and wala kang icteric sclera (paninilaw ng mata), most probably DIRTY SCLERA lang yan. It's usually caused by irritation or even dry eyes syndrome. there's no treatment sa mga ganung klaseng condition. However, pwede ka maglagay ng mga artificial tears (eg. hypromellose) and ipatak mo sa mga mata mo as needed. and also, avoid mo yung paglagay ng kung anu-ano sa mata mo, or be alert na hindi na-iirritate ang mga mata mo. :-)

doc ok lang ba pa-explain ng mga naka-highlight? thanks

hindi migraine yun doc kasi normal naman pakiramdam ko nun e

jun,

kung hindi migraine, magpacheck-up ka na sa ophthalmologist. :-)

anywaym just to clear things out, yung vitreous detachment ay common sa mga matatanda. ang eyeball kasi natin ay filled with a substance na tinatawag natin na vitreous. yung vitreous, attached yan sa inner surface ng eyeball, attached din ito posteriorly sa retina. habang tumatanda, maaaring magshrink itong viterous and at the same time, dahil nagshrink, unti-unting matatanggal ang mga attachemnts nito sa eyeball. yan ang tinatawag natin na vitreous detachment. may photopsia dito probably because uneven na yung vitreous mo so may light scattering that enters the retina.

yung retinal detachment naman, actually, milder nito yung tinatawag na retinal breaks. vision threatening itong condition na ito kasi yung retina ng tao, "attached" dun sa optic nerve. kapag nadetach itong retina sa optic nerve, ang tawag dun retinal detachment. maraming possible causes ng retinal detachment, pwedeng aging, pwedeng eye trauma, infections, or sadyang prone ka magroon nito dahil sa strong family history na may retinal detachment.

yung floaters, parangmga puti-puti na kikita mo. mukha itong mga "cobwebs" na lumulutang-lutang.

Thanks sa response.

Ako rin minsan ganito, sabi nila parang pagod lang yung mata mostly kapag daw babad ka sa Monitor ng computer or kakabasa. Ayun...hehehe...
