from disgusting foot ulcers to
gangrenous toes that fall off these are
the most horrific things that could
happen to your feet
number ten diabetic foot diabetes
mellitus is a chronic disease that
slowly affects many of the body's organs
and systems very commonly it affects the
lower limbs and the form of nerve damage
infection and impaired blood supply to
the feet collectively this is known as
diabetic foot a high blood glucose level
impairs the feeds nervous system leading
to a loss of sensory and pain sensation
so the person becomes unaware of the
injury sustained there this is further
complicated by the impaired blood flow
making healing very slow and difficult
when the sore is left open and unhealed
for long periods it becomes easily
infected and the pathogens take
advantage of the body's poor immune
system to further proliferate diabetic
foot lesions usually start as ulcers or
open sores at the toes soul or heel of
the patient since their sense of pain
that the feed is impaired they tend to
ignore these lesions until it becomes
worse but when severe infection and
gangrene sets in no amounts of medicine
or surgical debridement would heal it
and the only solution would be
amputation but even cutting off the foot
might not be enough in the long run as
diabetes is a chronic lifelong disease
and the patients might end up with
further amputation all the way above the
knee in the future number nine clubfoot
clubfoot is an unfortunate congenital
deformity to be born with it is fairly
common affecting one in 1,000 people the
condition can affect either one or both
feet making them twisted internally at
the ankle without treatment people with
club feet would appear too painfully
stagger and walk on their ankles or
sides of their feet fortunately the
condition could be corrected rather
easily nowadays through the use of
braces physiotherapy and surgery
american actor damon wayans was born
with a slub foot and lived with it for
years before undergoing surgical
correction before that his deformity was
often teased by other kids it was one of
the
that brought him at the comedy using
humor to combat pain this attribute was
later given to the main character in
wayne head a cartoon series that way and
created based on his own childhood about
a poor boy with a clubfoot number eight
Proteus syndrome Proteus syndrome is an
extremely rare congenital disorder that
results in bone skin and tissue over bro
the underlying cause is a genetic
mutation in the akp one gene which
regulates the growth and division of
cell there has only been around 200
cases ever recorded and currently only
120 people on the planet are alive with
the condition Geoffrey Ortega from
Florida is one of them he was diagnosed
with Proteus syndrome when he was just a
baby after his parents brought him to
the hospital when they noticed that his
left leg was a little longer than his
right as he grew up his feet began
developing abnormal growths underneath
the soles which then spread to the side
at the age of 11 he stopped wearing
regular shoes as none of them could fit
him today at the age of 27 his left foot
has reached 14 inches in length with a
circumference of 17 inches his right
foot is relatively smaller walking
itself it's painful and difficult for
Ortega and he is now seeking to amputate
his left foot believing it would improve
his general well-being number seven
psoriasis of the foot psoriasis is an
autoimmune disease that affects the skin
characterized by the formation of
plaques and scales it can affect almost
any surface of the body but are commonly
seen that the elbows needs back Scouts
and feet psoriasis of the foot presents
us thickening and yellowing at the sole
and size often accompanied by plush
tools and abscesses the condition is
unpleasant and painful and causes severe
discomfort upon standing or walking
further progression of psoriasis can
lead to psoriatic arthritis which
affects the foot even further it is a
very destructive and painful type of
arthritis which he rose the joints and
makes them swell the distal joints of
the smaller toes are mostly affected
toenails could be affected as well
becoming separated from their under
I nail bed number six lymphedema stage
three the lymphatic system is a network
of vessels that run throughout the
entire body parallel to the blood
circulatory system it carries the body's
interstitial fluid towards the heart and
into the bloodstream and functions as
part of the immune system but when this
system is compromised and the lymphatic
vessels become blocked it results in a
gruesome condition in the lower limb
known as lymphedema lymphedema of the
lower limbs can be caused by multiple
reasons one of the main being parasitic
infection specifically filarial worm
these worms occupy the lymphatic system
causing a blockage so interstitial fluid
becomes accumulated in the leg left
untreated the feet and legs would
continue to swell from accumulated fluid
and eventually reach an irreversible
state known as lymphedema stage 3 at
this stage the feet and legs are
horribly disfigured having swelled to an
enormous size making them practically
useless the range of movements of the
legs is severely limited and they are
often too heavy to properly walk with
because of its appearance the condition
is sometimes called elephantitis
referring to an elephant's leg the leg
tissues have hardened and are
unresponsive to medication and some
people resort to be bulk it'd be a
reconstructive surgery however this
practice is dangerous and could harm the
patient more with complications like
added bacterial infections number 50
tokong Knossos AKA mossy foot like the
after mentioned elephantitis caused by
filarial worms this condition is
somewhat similar but differs in its
cause odo koni OSIS or mossy foot is the
case of lymphedema affecting the lower
limb due to repeated exposure to
irritants oils like filarial
elephantitis photocall gnosis is
characterized by you meant swelling of
the feet and legs leading to
disfigurement and disability evidence
has suggested that some people are prone
to develop inflammatory reactions upon
chronic skin exposure to silicate and
mineral particles present in red clay
soils since protocol gnosis only
developed upon direct skin contact with
soil the condition is prevalent in
Africa and third world countries where
many people walk barefoot
it is also more commonly seen in higher
altitude areas with volcanic soil rich
in silica irritants the appearance of
photo Kong gnosis is not a pleasant one
multiple modules and ward like growth
develop over time resembling moths the
swelling is hideous and the pain and
discomfort makes it difficult for the
sufferer to walk it gets worse with
recurrent infections resulting in a
terrible stench sufferers are sometimes
ostracized and shunned by ignorant
communities thinking they are kurz and
are forced to become beggars number 4
oneco script OSAS AKA ingrown toenails
oneco crypto TSA's or ingrown nails are
very common and seen in all ages but are
more commonly seen and children whose
toe structure undergo inconsistent
growth or in old people due to
structural bone changes of the reasons
include improper cutting of the toenails
wearing tight footwear and stress
ingrown toenails might sound like a
trivial matter but aren't something that
should be ignored the nail could
penetrate deep into the flesh and cause
intense pain and inflammation at the
site where it curls into this also
increases the chance for infection
resulting in further damage to the toe
in 2012 english teacher hannah moore had
surgery to remove an ingrown toenail on
her right foot after experiencing months
of discomfort it was a minor operation
and no complications were expected
however days later she developed complex
regional pain syndrome a rare and
extremely agonizing condition her foots
turned dark and a horrible flesh-eating
ulcer appeared in the middle of it even
the slightest touch to the leg cost
unbearable pain after more than three
years of suffering she decided to get
rid of the foot altogether in July 2016
Hanna underwent a surgery to have her
right leg amputated all because of one
ingrown toenails number three
osteomyelitis of the foot osteomyelitis
is an infection of a bone that is
usually caused by the steffelow caucus
bacteria bones rarely become infected
although it does happen in a number of
ways most commonly the back tier
reham gets in via the bloodstream or
following an injury particularly to the
foot or ankle osteomyelitis of the bones
of the fee might become suppurative with
the formation of pus deep inside the
bones blood vessels when it gets chronic
the bones become sclerosis and he formed
in these late stages the only solution
is surgical drainage of pus and the
removal of dead and infected bone if the
infection persists amputation of the
foot or leg might become necessary
number two the wrong leg being amputated
foot or leg amputations are common
procedures done in hospital and it is
sometimes unthinkable that a surgeon
could mess up so badly by cutting off
the wrong limb yet that mistake does
happen and of course having the wrong
foot or leg amputated still means you
require the correct amputation so you
end up with both sides gone in 1995 one
of the most shocking and publicized
medical mistakes of the century happened
in the university community hospital and
temple Florida the then 52 year old
Willie King was wheeled into the
operation theatre to remove a disease
leg but during the procedure surgeons
accidentally cut the wrong leg and did
not realize their mistake until it was
too late to reverse the procedure
according to the hearing it was a series
of mistakes that led to the wrong leg
being prepped for surgery and the
surgeons claimed that both legs were in
fact unhealthy however the mistake still
cost the attending surgeon a large sum
of money and fine as well as a six-month
suspension from practicing medicine
number one critical limb ischaemia of
the lower limb peripheral arteries that
supply the limbs could become narrowed
from years of cholesterol buildup
cigarette smoking and high blood
pressure the initial symptom would be
intermittent claudication described as
intense muscle pain during activity
usually in the calf muscles progressive
worsening would eventually lead to
critical limb ischaemia the most
advanced and terrifying outcome of a
peripheral artery disease at this stage
patients would often experience continue
with severe burning pains of the lower
leg and feet even during rest and
sufficient blood supply due to narrowed
arteries would eventually lead to tissue
death in the form of ulcers and anger
the ulcers which have a punched out
appearance are intensely painful and
have a chance of becoming infected the
gangrenous tissues are even worse be too
limited oxygen and the ischemic limb the
affected part normally the toes become
dry shrunken and black with a clear line
of separation from the non gangrenous
part these dead tissues have no chance
of being cured and if not removed
surgically would eventually detect and
fall off by itself automatically just
the killer's disfigured face is the most
familiar image in the creepypasta
universe the story is about a teenage
boys descent into murderous madness most
of the times the story involves a young
boy named Jeff who moves into a new
neighborhood with his younger brother
Lou and his parents
