Being born with twelve fingers, also known as polydactyly, is a congenital condition where a person has extra fingers or toes. It is typically a benign condition and can be surgically corrected if necessary. Some cultures view polydactyly as a sign of good luck or uniqueness.

Why are children born with twelve fingers?

Children are born with twelve fingers due to a condition known as polydactyly, which is characterized by the presence of extra fingers or toes. This genetic anomaly can occur due to mutations during fetal development, often inherited from one or both parents. While polydactyly can occur in isolation, it may also be associated with other genetic syndromes. Most extra digits are non-functional and may require surgical removal for cosmetic or functional reasons.
