Anyum

Name Ainehume (Anyum) Type Rare, hereditary disease of the elbow joint, characterized by gangrenous lesions of the fingers

Aainhume is a rare hereditary inflammatory disease that manifests as gangrene of the fingers and toes. With aainhume, the blood vessels leading to the fingers become blocked, which leads to their death. For the most part, people suffer from only one finger, but in some cases they may suffer from two. This disease has been known for more than a hundred years, but the origin of this disease or the cause of its occurrence has not yet been established.

If you are a carrier of the aainhuma gene, then the chance of passing this disease to your child is 50%. The genetic origin of this disease is confirmed by the fact that the probability of getting Aainhume in a person is always the same, regardless of his race, skin color or gender. The development of aainhue disease can begin at any age, even during the neonatal period. The risk of developing aainhuema increases with age as a carrier of the gene. The disease can be cured, but the success of treatment depends on the degree of tissue damage and timely action. If the finger is caught too deeply by the disease, it will have to be removed.
