There are diseases that we have never heard of but with advancement in medical science human has able to manage to survive no matter what ever might the condition may be. Human health though considered as precious we all relay on God’s miracle to take happen. There are various critical medical conditions where the humans are just the audience to it. A disease is something when you believe without knowing you believe that you are damaged at your core so it’s prime requirement to identify and find a way out to heel it.
Here is the list of Top 10 most Strange disease in medical science :
Myotonia Congenita
It’s a bit unrealistic of hearing of fainting of goats that doesn’t mean that they are only animal that faint but in significance myotonia congenital it is found in goats. Considering the case of human also suffer from myotonia congenita this happens due to the genetic mutation which affects the flow of chloride ions leads failure contract or to release. Thus resulting muscle stiffness after normal contractions. In general after long periods of rest it also affects muscles of legs, arms, jaws and diaphragm.
No cure is recorded so far except treatment offered for worst cases. Stiffness in muscles can be avoided if some exercise or gentle movement is done but despite of all precautions due to occasional embarrassment the diagnosed tends to live happy long lives.
Hereditary Sensory Neuropathy (HSN)
In particular this type of disease is referred as hereditary and it has been estimated that only 2 cases out of 1 million people is found to have affected with HSN.
Primary symptoms of HSN of type 1 category shows a loss of sensation in legs, feet, arms and hands as HSN leads to a loss of sensing pain, this is because of dead body tissues.
People in distress use to break their limbs or bite off a slice of their tongue without feeling a bit of pain. If a person is not able to feel pain that might make life-threatening as injuries and wounds might be left untreated and unnoticed.
Nail Patella Syndrome
Persons suffering from Nail Patella Syndrome (NPS) face a greater difficulty when they look down to their fingers it creates a fear in the persons mind that what would be the consequences of such degradation in nail growth.
The symptoms for Nail-Patella Syndrome often refers to persons with no nails or abnormal growth of nails, nails split to half or simply away from the nail bed. To other form of symptoms is the skeletal abnormalities that limit the movement and at extreme being the deformation absence of the kneecap.
As per record it has been found that in every 50,000 people at least one is found to have NPS, but the related symptoms are much more wider than the expected ones so at times it gets difficult to get proper diagnosis based on particular identified disease.
Alopecia Areata(AA)
This type of disease is referred as an autoimmune disease that means the hair follicles on head are attacked unwontedly that result in hair loss and leaving a vacant space.
Alopecia Areata has two significant forms such as Alopecia totalis and Alopecia universalis. Both the forms relates to the attack of hair follicles, the former type leads to the complete loss of hair and the other form damages all hair follicles that includes head, hairs on legs, eyebrows, lashes etc.
To prior information no cure to such disease has been encountered though it affects only 2 percent of the total world population. No particular symptoms are being reported other than itchy or sensitive skin at the early stages of AA.
Chiari Malformation(CM)
Chiari malformation signifies to persons those who have a brain too big for their skull. The significance for this disease is because a part of the brai named cerebellum is being pushed into the spinal canal. Being rare only 1 percent of the US population has Chiari malformation(CM) and is being commonly diagnosed in case of all age groups.
At present 4 different types has been found such as Type I, II, III, and IV. Type I signifies the most common and least severe where as Type IV is the rarest and severe that leads to the cause of neurological problems that are fatal. It’s unusual that not all with Chiari malformation shows symptoms.
Xeroderma Pigmentosum(XP)
This condition relates to genetic changes that have extreme sensitivity to UV rays. In general it refers to the repair of DNA that gets mutated due to interference. It happens to appear first at childhood stage remarked by severe sunburn for just a few minutes of exposure. Some common symptoms like freckling of the face and exposed skin as well as dryness of skin and change of skin colour.
The bad factor about XP is there is a high chance of skin cancer. Most primarily the eyes become bloodshot or hazy due to irritation from UV exposure.
Based on symptoms and severity XP has been categorized as 8 different types. It has been estimated that only 1 in 250,000 people in Europe and the US suffers this deadly disease.
Gastroschisis
It’s irrelevant to think of missing body parts but its more unusual to have most of your insides found on outside. Gastroschisis refers to birth defect that prevents the development of normal organs.
As reported the abdomen close around the organs at the fetus ages due which some of the fetus organs ends up stuck outside the body.
With the accordance the chance of gastroschisis is around 3.73 per 10,000, but the risk is high in case of young mothers.
Geographic Tongue
It’s most typical and unnoticed disease found as a map like shapes on the tongue so the name. This is due to the patches appearing that may be due to of missing of papillae or tiny finger like projections. The shape of map like shape changes eventually as the days progresses depending on the papillae being healed.
In general Geographic tongue is categorized as harmless condition with no symptoms as some people face a weird in tongue discomfort or sensitivity to spicy foods. It has been a conflicting issue that it somewhat links to diabetes. As per analysis it is possibly a genetic trend that run in families.
Progressive Lipodystrophy
Sometimes it is called as reverse Benjamin Button syndrome, lipodystrophy that make old beyond their age. This is caused due to inherit of gene mutation or can be acquired by means of medications, lipodystrophy can be characterized as the loss in fat tissue right beneath the skin. In common the loss of fat loss occurs in the face followed by the neck, upper part along with trunk which leads to dents, folds and wrinkles in the skin.
Till date only 200 cases has been reported worldwide, basically affecting women. Besides primary treatment like insulin, face-lifts or collagen injections still proper cure has not been detected.
Fibrodysplasia Ossificans Progressiva (FOP)
In layman’s means this disease is recognized as Stone Man’s Disease but prior to medical terms it is known as fibrodysplasia ossificans progressiva (FOP). The rarest of all disease but caused due genetic disturbance. As the name signifies the bone tissue automatically begins to grow where muscles, tendons and other connective tissues there by restricting movement. Persons suffering with this disease may lead to the growth second skeleton that eventually turn them into living idols.
Throughout the world, there have been only 800 confirmed cases and no such cure is reported other than assisting with painkillers.
Symptoms of FOP experiences trauma or flare ups at random. As per record in 2006, the FOP gene was been discovered and relevant clinical trials are now active.
It’s unusual if anyone suffering from such consequences may feel unlucky but prior to god’s creation every disease has certain solution that can be dealt with.
With all mishaps in human life just have faith on the all mighty and have a healthy and happy living!!
