Deformity


A deformity is an abnormality in the shape of an organ or a body part, which is true;

Deformities have been around for years, so they're not new.

 

A deformity can be caused by a hormone disorder, complications at birth, damage to the uterus, or a genetic mutation;

There are people with deformities in every nation.

 

A deformity can also be caused by muscle imbalance, head binding, a malunion, rheumatoid disorders, or a burn injury;

A deformity is very bad and always will be.

 

I used to watch the 1980 movie, The Elephant Man, which is about a severely deformed man named Joseph Merrick and I'm speaking honestly;

The movie script calls him John Merrick, as you can see.

 

A surgical adjustment can correct a deformity, which is good;

A deformity correction can be done in any neighborhood.

 

No one should live with a deformity everyday;

A deformity correction is needed and that's all I have to say.
