American swimmer and 12 time Olympic medallist Dara Torres has teamed up with Celgene Corporation and Otezla to launch its Show More Of You campaign, which aims to inspire people living with psoriasis to raise awareness about the condition.
The campaign urges people to post inspirational images and messages on its website and Torres commented 'I started noticing red, irritable, flaky patches on my elbows and back that seemed to be aggravated by stress, but I didn't let fear or embarrassment keep me out of a bathing suit or out of the pool. Instead, I worked with my dermatologist to manage my plaque psoriasis symptoms and didn't let the impact of the disease force me to adapt my life at the expense of my dreams. I want to encourage others to do the same'.
