A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I’m scared my doctors want me to have the surgery because how long I’ve been dealing with my skin I’m 24 now started around 4th grade what do you guys think also I have a 1 year old and if I do it will be next year because of the holidays this year and my sons Bug 2nd is in November so I don’t wanna miss anything so let give me your opinion?

Yes it’s a chance they can come back but very unlikely in my case

Did your Dr. State the success rate of the surgey? I had surgey to remove the sweat glands in my armpit about 15+ yrs ago and it was about 98% successful. I have little to no flare ups there.

When they remove skin from one part of the body and apply it else where but my doctor wants to clean out the tracks and close them and then skin grafts
