Man has stone removed from leg after 20 years
Online Edition
A STONE was taken out of a man’s leg today after it was left there 20 years ago, according to NOWnews in Taiwan.
This 50-year-old man, surnamed Huang, sought treatment for an egg-sized pustule on the inner side of his left leg a few weeks ago. It was diagnosed as an inflammation, and he agreed to have an operation since his doctor said that it could lead to septicemia through his lymph system or blood and cause serious consequences, even death.
During the operation, the doctor removed a little-finger-sized stone from the pustule.
Huang said he once felt a pain in the leg 20 years ago when he was mowing. Since the pain didn’t get worse, he ignored it until it went away. He said he thinks an accident while mowing left the stone in his leg.
