Unusual bodily anomalies shared by their owners themselves (21 photos)

Each person's body is individual and unique. But sometimes with things happen to him that are so unique that they are called anomalies, deviations and oddities. Here are some examples from the subreddit r/mildlyinteresting on this topic.





1. The hand of a person with hyperhidrosis, which means that their hands and feet sweat a lot



“And I also thought it was my hands that sweat a lot!” Do you drink more water than most people?

- Yes. Come to think of it, I drink water all the time.

2. On the right is the hand of a person who does not have a long palmar muscle (tendon in the middle part of the forearm that flexes hand)



— I study at the school of massage. One girl in my class doesn't have this muscle. We checked everything to make sure.

3. This man whose vitiligo has depigmented nearly his entire thumb.



— I think it looks very good on your skin. Like a work of art.

- Thank you! I like summer when the spots get bigger noticeable. It is interesting to see how the picture has changed over the winter.

4. This woman's red hair has faded over the past 11 years, oh as evidenced by the darker strand of hair cut off at 16



- Red hair tends to lose its redness over time, this is very common.

My hair was bright red when I was a child and turned into a nice chestnut as I got older. Now me way past 30 and they are just a dull reddish brown with some gray hair here and there. I really miss my native color.

5. Two tone beard, half dark red, half bright red



- How often do people not believe that this is a natural color, and accuse you of dyeing it?

- At least once a week. Now I've just learned to look at them in response with a look that says “I should do something more nothing?"

6. Unsuccessfully opened a ballpoint pen 20 years ago, the mark on the finger is still there



- I did the same, but with a pencil, I'm now 27, and the trace of it is still with me.

- The same, but I'm 50. Graphite tattoos ... they are eternal.

7. Brown stripe is a birthmark under the nail



- Do not worry. I've already been to the doctor, and no, it's not cancer. He sent me to a specialist who then sent me for a biopsy. They said it's all right.

8. Four fingers on the left hand, index instead of thumb



“It’s strange that I’m more interested in the length of your fingers, they are damn long.

— I often realize it. It helps to play the piano.

9. The left eye is about one-third gray - that is, with heterochromia



Have you ever checked with a doctor? Heterochromia has close association with certain genetic diseases and/or sensitivity, if I'm not mistaken. However, it looks great!

10. The structure of the fingers on the right hand is different from the fingers on the left



- A pianist with a strong bass hand and a strong hand for improvisation.

11. Fused toes. As you can see, it's inherited.



“I know what it’s called—syndactyly!” It was the main plot point in Dean Koontz's novel Expected Duration life."

“Oh, oh, I didn't know that. The only thing I know is that it was an anomaly when I was born, but now it's just norm option.

12. This is a person who has "too many bones" in his mouth - that is, mandibular tori (bone growths)



- Hey! It's nice to meet a brother in misfortune. I have I had these growths all my life, but I didn't know they were weird until I under 26 or so. My dentist didn't even mention it with me but looking back it explains why take a bite plastic surgery to get x-rays was painful for me but not for my brothers and sisters. It doesn't hurt, and the only outward expression is slight lisp.

13. Split (forked) uvula



It's a congenital thing that can't be cured. There may be speech problems.

14. This is a person who was born without fingerprints or footprints.



Does it give you any advantage in finger painting?

- Haha.

15. The thumb on the right hand with an undeveloped joint, this finger cannot be bent



- The joint stopped developing at the age of 3 years. Done x-rays, but I'm not sure if mom still has the pictures.

16. Tooth in the palate



- History of cleft lip/palate? I see kids with it all the time.

- No. He has been there since I was a child. Fortunately, he hasn't cut yet. If this happens I will need surgery to remove it.

17. A milk tooth that never fell out. And, accordingly, an adult tooth did not erupt in this place



“Looks like the tooth fairy owes you a lot. Take the full amount with interest.

18. A small gap between the middle and ring fingers (on both hands). Passed down from father



Hello to everyone who immediately looked at their hand when they saw this photo.

19. The ring finger (on both hands) in the cold becomes "ghostly white" due to Raynaud's phenomenon.



- I'm a medical worker. Raynaud's disease in men should be seen as secondary to something else, as long as will not be proven otherwise, especially if it happened recently and is not has always been a symptom you've experienced.

20. None of the fingers have middle knuckles



“I really want to see an x-ray of your hands.

I probably have one, but I don't know where.
