Tree Man Is No Longer Tree Man

For years, Abul Bajandar had massive growths on his hands, which were actually warts, but looked like branches from a tree. This led to Bajandar being dubbed “Tree Man,” in addition to a lot of misery.



The extremely rare disease, known as epidermodysplasia verruciformis, is a skin disorder that can result in the growth of macules and papules, or swelling and discolorations that grow bigger over time. Bajandar, a father, couldn’t pick up his daughter, eat by himself, or work. (He was a rickshaw driver before the condition began to take hold.)




But, doctors in Dhaka, Bangladesh said that after “at least” 16 operations, they had fixed Bajandar’s hands, and perhaps permanently cured him.


Bajandar, 27, is expected to be released from the hospital in the next 30 days, and, he says, will start a business with the donations he’s received since his sickness made international headlines last year.
