A Poor Old Man

Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong

He sat lonely and scared everyone.

Seeing this poor old man, I realised that good health is our real treasure.

If anyone knows what kind of sickness this old man was suffering, please let me know.

Excellent capture, very moving. I don't think these are fatty tumors (lipomas) as suggested, but not sure what they are. ~

It made me sad. Kwan thanks for your sharing and let me know what is health.

This is probably a case of neurofibromatosis which causes tumors to grow on nerves on or under the skin anywhere in the body. The tumors are usually not cancerous but can be disfiguring...... Yes, Kwan, good health is a real treasure.
