Daylyt has arachnodactyly, and the image of his feet is genuine
Daylyt, a combat rapper and hip-hop musician, has congenital contractual arachnodactyly, a rare genetic disorder, which he fights against. This medical condition affects numerous body systems and frequently causes persons to be extraordinarily tall and have lengthy limbs (dolichostenomelia). They might also have arachnodactyly, which has impacted Daylyt since birth, and manifests as long, thin, and twisted fingers and toes.
Furthermore, those who have this illness may have permanently bent joints, which limits movement in the elbows, knees, ankles, and hips. Other characteristics include underdeveloped muscles, a projecting chest, permanently bent fingers and toes, a round upper back bending to the side, and permanently bent fingers and toes.
Additionally, those who have congenital contractual arachnodactyly may also have cardiac flaws including leaking valves or swollen blood vessels. People who have this disease seldom survive past infancy, and a severe version of it may even harm the digestive system. The life expectancy of those with this condition is typical in all other respects.

The global prevalence of congenital contractual arachnodactyly is estimated to be one in 10,000. The condition is brought on by an aberrant FBN2 gene mutation. It’s noteworthy to note that the term arachnodactyly, which refers to the condition in which the fingers and toes frequently resemble those of arachnids (eight-legged animals like spiders and scorpions), is derived from the word “arachnid”.
