Hi everybody! This Forum Game is based in the series "House MD".

It works like that: I tell the symptoms and the users try to find out what disease is. They may look on other sites to find out. As House's diagnosis are too complicated, the diseases here will be easier. Each user have 3 guesses. Let's begin...

Patient: 30-year-old female.

Symptoms: Severe headache, nasal congestion, toothache and lacrimation (she is tearing for no apparent reason). Facial X-Ray is showing an anomaly.

Can you discover what it is? Tip: is a common condition caused by inflamation of the facial bones.

UPDATE:

I'm looking for a new condition. As it is hard to find a different one all the time, I think I will check the House, MD's Wikia for the diseases used on the episodes.

Kufs Disease. There is no treatment, but anticonvulsants as well as speech and physical therapy can help.
