5 Unsolved Medical Mysteries That Still Baffle Doctors

5 Unsolved Medical Mysteries That Still Baffled Doctors Today It’s good to know that the progress rate of medical science is at a neck-breaking speed. At least almost every year, we hear of new vaccines and treatments being developed to cure almost any kind of ailments. However, the medical world is still bombarded with mysterious cases that even the brightest among doctors couldn’t solve, let alone explain. Here are 5 of the most intriguing unsolved medical mysteries from around the world. 5. The Girl Who Refused To Age Brooke Greenberg of Reisterstown, Maryland passed away on October 24, 2013 at the tender age of 20. Despite what the age has suggested, Brooke died without learning how to speak. The most she could do was to babble, like she’s still an infant. In fact, everything about her: from her physical size to mental capacity, was that of a baby. 4. The Allergy to Water You may think it to be impossible – especially that our bodies are basically made up of water, 60% of it – but some, shall we say, unfortunate individuals, turned out to have allergies to water. These people can still drink this liquid and any of its form, of course. The problem, however, comes when they use it to wash themselves. 3. Cry Me Some Stones! A father from Yemen sought help from his community, his country, and later, the world because his daughter cries a different kind of tears. Just this year, the father, Mohammad Saleh Al Jaharani, was shocked to find out that his eight-year-old daughter, Saadia, was crying tiny stones instead of tears. The girl is one of Mohammad’s 12 children yet she is the only one among her siblings who has this strange condition. 2. The One With the Smelly Finger In a 1996 issue of the medical journal The Lancet, a case study pointed out the case of a 29-year-old man who accidentally pricked his finger on a chicken bone. The incident which happened 5 years prior, eventually changed the man’s life. The wound, which was rather minute in size, left him with an infection which made him emit a terrible smell from his finger. 1. The Boy Who Doesn’t Feel Hunger and Thirst Landon Jones is a boy from Cedar Falls in Iowa who has a peculiar medical case that some people may find to be a blessing, and others, a curse. In 2013, Jones was hospitalized because of a bacterial infection in the lungs. Thanks to the immediate medical attention, the lung infection was gone. However, what happened next had everyone scratching their heads.
