A 45-year-old woman in Hyderabad reported unusual physical changes: her wedding ring, which she had worn comfortably for over two decades, became tight, and her shoe size increased from 5 to 7. Despite these changes, her weight remained stable for the past 1.5 years. Neurologist Dr. Sudhir Kumar suggested that these symptoms could indicate acromegaly, a hormonal disorder caused by excessive secretion of growth hormone, often linked to a benign tumor in the pituitary gland. Dr. Kumar noted that early signs of acromegaly include gradual enlargement of hands and feet, leading to tighter rings and the need for larger shoes. Unfortunately, this condition is frequently diagnosed late, as its progression can be slow, resulting in a delay of five to ten years from the onset of symptoms to an accurate diagnosis.
