Horn-like nails growing from woman's feet (C)CEN |
A pensioner whose foot has been growing bizarre horn-like toenails claims she is in so much pain, she can’t sleep or walk. The horn-like nails sprouting from her foot has continued to grow and has left a lot of medics speechless. An expert after viewing the images told MailOnline the woman, from the town of Wadi Al Dawasir in central Saudi Arabia's Riyadh Province, was likely suffering from a condition called cutaneous horns. These are made of compact keratin and formed from the same protein found in fingernails and skin. But he cautioned the growths 'could also turn out to be a nasty skin carcinoma (cancer) of some type'.
Cautioned? As if the patient can do anything about it.
