Elephantiasis mbloo. A bad one if ever there was one, messes up your lymphatic vessels thoroughly and reconstructive surgery is a major headache, both in terms of cost as well as complexity.

Be informed, too, that it can affect any body organ with extensive lymph vessel network, principally the scrotum, legs as well as female breasts.
Life is like playing a violin solo in public and learning the instrument as one goes on.

@Mbloo Jaggernut. Are you a brother to @Mawinder?? Kuuliza tuu.
Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God..

not a laughing matter at all, this is one of the so-called neglected diseases. Caused by a worm known as wuchereria bancrofti. The huge 'growths' are oedema (swellings) due to disruption of lymph flow in your lymphatic system.
our goals are best achieved indirectly
