Dense growth of hair on boy's body baffles medicos

Sangli, July 20 (UNI) Dense growth of hair on the entire body of a Class V student here has posed a challenge to medicos.

Prithviraj, son of a progressive farmer Diliprao Patil, has had such hairy growth since his birth. Even the child's face is covered with hair.

Speaking to UNI, Mr Patil said he has tried all sorts of medical treatment -- homoeopathy, ayurveda and allopathy -- but to no avail.

He had also consulted American experts through his relatives residing there. That too has not helped.

Since the last four years, Mr Patil has stopped all treatments on his son.
