Backstory=

Gregory House was born to Blythe House and John House, a Marine Pilot who was often overseas. During his father's absence, his mother had an affair with a man named Thomas Bell, whom House believed to be his biological father due to physical similarities that ultimately turned out to be false. As a result of his father's military duties, House lived in various countries, including Egypt, the Philippines, and Japan. This exposure led him to become multilingual, speaking Spanish and Mandarin, with conversational skills in Brazilian Portuguese and some reading ability in Hindi, Japanese, French, Yiddish, Russian, and Latin. House's father treated him coldly, possibly stemming from a lack of understanding or as an expression of frustration over his wife's infidelity. The harsh punishments, such as ice baths and sleeping outside, contributed to House's cynicism, fear of intimacy, and difficulty accepting societal norms.

During his early teens, House found inspiration to pursue medicine after meeting a burakuan in a Japanese hospital, who stood out by refusing to conform to societal expectations. Later, at a prep school in the U.S., he excelled academically while playing varsity lacrosse and cultivating a passion for both modern and classical music. He eventually met Lisa Cuddy while attending the University of Michigan’s Medical system. However, a one-night stand with her led to his rejection from Johns Hopkins, forcing him to repeat his final year of medical school.

House's life took a critical turn when he suffered a leg infarction while playing golf, with the only symptom being leg pain. By the time he recognized the severity of his condition, amputation was recommended. Instead, he opted for a procedure to bypass circulation around the dead muscle, resulting in immense pain and cardiac arrest that placed him in a chemically induced coma. While he was unconscious, his medical proxy, Stacy, chose to follow Dr. Cuddy's advice to surgically remove the dead muscle, which, although it saved his life, left him with permanent pain and a noticeable scar.

After the incident, House's relationship with Stacy deteriorated, leading to her departure and his increased reliance on his best friend, Wilson, for emotional support, which contributed to Wilson's subsequent divorce. To cope with the chronic pain, House became addicted to Vicodin, although he had previously engaged in recreational drug use. His dependency on the medication created further complications, leaving his colleagues questioning whether his antisocial behavior stemmed from addiction, pain, or his personality. House is reluctant to discuss his leg injury, is sensitive about its appearance, and has even shown it to others during moments of vulnerability. Ultimately, he acknowledged that his decision to save his leg was flawed, recognizing that amputation might have spared him constant pain and a more stable personal life.
