The “corrective procedure” for
prostate hypertrophy
that King Charles III had a little over a week ago triggered news that still echoes in Buckingham Palace.
The monarch of the United Kingdom suffers from
"a type of cancer"
.
The report released this Monday speaks of a
separate cancer, beyond the operation
he underwent.
However, it does not specify where in the body it is located,
nor the complexity
it must go through.
This
is not the only illness
that the 75-year-old monarch suffers from.
For several years now he has been struggling with a strange condition called
dactylitis
, which consists of
severe swelling of the fingers
(especially those on the hand) that produces severe
pain and deformity
in the joints.
The pain he suffers from
is chronic
and he underwent
several operations
without finding a solution to the problem.
In fact, during his mandate, he appointed Dr. Michael Dixon,
a homeopath
, as physician to the Royal Household to treat said disease.
Something that at the time brought controversy to the crown.
Although it was never explained what kind of dactylitis he suffers from, it is known that a common symptom can arise from
other diseases that are not talked about
, such as
psoriatic arthritis
, for example.
Also, there are other causes that can give rise to this type of inflammation, such as tuberculosis.
Several testimonies show that Carlos III has compulsive and uncontrollable behaviors.
And that
he suffers from chronic body pain
, something that was revealed by Prince Harry himself.
Another operation he underwent dates back to
2008
.
Around that time, he had a
non-cancerous growth
removed from his face in a minor, routine procedure.
However, that intervention left a
stain on the side of his nose
.
Another surgical intervention was five years earlier, in
2003
: he
underwent surgery for a hernia
, a result of his activity linked to polo.
