An elderly man in southern China has baffled medical experts after he began to grow a horn on his head. Huang Yuanfan, 84, says that the strange growth began as a small bump two years ago but just continued to grow.

"I tried picking at it and even filing it but nothing changed it. The horn just kept getting bigger," he said.
Now the horn is almost three inches long and still growing.
"Doctors say they don't know what caused it but if they try to take it off it will just come back. I try to hide it beneath a hat but if it gets much longer it will be sticking out the top," he added.

I wonder how many people so far have tried to take it from him to grind down into an aphrodisiac.

I guess his doctors don't know how to use the Google. It's called a "cutaneous horn." Here is a link to a story about Chinese woman who has the same condition: http://www.weirdasianews.com/2010/03/24/chinese-woman-grows-horn-head/
