Some people are born with a tiny hole near the ear, a condition known as preauricular pit. It can appear on one or both ears, though it’s most often found on the right side. Thankfully, it’s usually harmless and rarely causes any health problems.
Fingers and Toes Without Nails
It may be hard to imagine life without fingernails or toenails, but for people with anonychia congenita, this is normal. This rare genetic condition results in missing nails at birth. It can affect all the nails or only a few. Despite its unusual appearance, it typically doesn’t impact a person’s health.
Constant Body Odor
Some individuals experience a persistent odor due to a condition called trimethylaminuria, with only about 100 documented cases. The body naturally produces a chemical called trimethylamine—known for its strong, fishy smell. Most people break it down through normal metabolism, but those with trimethylaminuria cannot, leading the odor to be released through sweat and breath.
