CAMBRIDGE, Mass., June 20 (UPI) -- A 25-year-old man previously unable to grow hair on his body, now has a full head of hair thanks to a medication for rheumatoid arthritis called tofacitinib citrate.
The young patient suffered from both plaque psoriasis, a condition involving scaly red areas of skin, and alopecia universalis, an autoimmune disease whereby baldness extends across the entirety of the body.
