This has been mentioned on another thread but I thought it might be interesting to know how many of the rabble have this, or know of someone in their family.

From Wikipedia

Dupuytren's disease is a rather non-specific affliction, but primarily affects:
People of Scandinavian or Northern European ancestry;[3] it has been called the "Viking disease"

Both myself and my brother have it and appears to be genetic. It is not painful in any way.



It is common in Iceland as well, who are of Viking origin.
