"Now something is also growing on the right side of her forehead. It's quite possible that it's another horn."<br /><br />The condition has been undiagnosed but the growth does resemble a cutaneous horn - made up of compacted keratin, a protein we have in our hair and nails - that forms horns and feathers in animals and can afflict elderly people with a history of significant sun exposure.
