A 107-year-old Chinese woman has left social media users stunned after revealing a massive horn growing from her forehead.

The lady, Chen, has become a sensation on the Asian platform Douyin after a video showcasing her strange four-inch protrusion went viral. Netizens have dubbed the growth a “longevity horn,” believing it possesses magical properties that explain Chen’s impressive age

Highlights

107-year-old Chen went viral for her 4-inch ‘longevity horn’ on Douyin.
Dermatologists identify the horn as a cutaneous horn, not magical.
Half of such horns may be pre-malignant or malignant, linked to skin cancer.
Doctors advise removing the horn to check for malignancy, despite concerns.
Not only has Chen led an unusually long life, but she remains in excellent health. Those close to her describe her as having a strong appetite and a cheerful disposition, with her viewers believing the horn to be the secret to keeping her healthy.

“Do not remove it under any circumstances!” one viewer warned. “My grandmother had a similar growth removed and passed away just days later!”

The horn has no magical properties or health benefits despite what Chen’s followers may believe.

Dermatologists describe these strange occurrences as cutaneous horns, rare, cone-shaped skin growths akin to animal horns, coral, or wood that are more common in older patients around 60 to 70.

The “horns” are caused by an overgrowth of the skin’s foremost superficial layer, the epidermis, and are thus white or yellow. They are usually benign, causing no damage to the person other than potentially breaking or causing inflammation.
Half of them, however, are described as pre-malignant or fully malignant, which means they are indicative of skin cancer. While both types of horns look similar, dangerous ones are more common in older patients and males than females.

The malignant variant is called Squamous Cell Carcinoma and is more likely if the horn is painful, large, has significant induration at the base, features a broad base, and has a degree of redness.

Dermatologists urge patients to remove the horns to examine the tissue and determine whether they are benign or cancerous

While some of Chen’s viewers pleaded with her family not to remove the massive horn on her forehead, doctors recommend excision as soon as possible to examine the tissue and determine whether the growth is benign or malignant.
