Indian Man's Leg Swells Due To Mystery Condition, Weighs The Same As Baby Elephant
This man from India is suffering from a mystery condition that has caused his legs to swell -leaving one weighing the same as a baby elephant. Arun Rajasingh, 34, from Chennai, southern India, has been suffering from a bizarre genetic disorder since birth, which has triggered the abnormal growth. His right leg now weighs an incredible 15st 10lbs (220lbs or 100kg) - approximately the same weight as a newborn elephant calf. The condition, which has baffled doctors in India, leaves him immobile and needing a wheelchair to get around. Despite regularly undertaking physiotherapy and medication to reduce the pain in his legs, no cure has yet been found.
