What's the most ridiculous thing at doctors ever told you what is it your skin disease outcome on a hospital visit mine was one time with a spider bite
I don't even give stupid doctors a chance to misdiagnose anything. I educate them. Tell them what the name of my skin condition is and say if you don't know don't be afraid to say that you don't… read more
I love my CLN Shampoo (orange label). Keeps bacteria at bay and takes odors away effectively. Doesn’t leave my skin dry either.
I was diagnosed w HS a year ago and pcos about a 6 years ago and I’ve doing a lot of research.
I tried using tea tree oil and it helps somewhat but lately I’ve been having flares more often.
I’m currently taking metformin and ibuprofen for pain along w a topical cream for antibiotics and quit smoking weed because I read it exacerbates flares.

Im trying to figure out "what" is causing my mast cells to be triggered & keeping this inflammatory nightmare going. I dont smoke, not obese but i DO have chronic pancreatitis.

I'm into researching and trying different things to see what works for me. So far, a heart healthy diet helps with HS. I only drink water, nothing else. My flares have been mild and manageable for the… read more

Hi all, I am really struggling mentally at the moment with my HS which is putting a strain on my relationship as he always thinks it’s him no matter how many times I say it’s not and this will pass, it’s just another side effect of the condition. It has gotten a lot worse lately as I had surgery beginning of sept for incision and drain on right armpit and since then have had two flare ups in both armpits, I am now on second round of co-amoxiclav, with the possibility of another surgery on the… read more
Hello. It has for me also. I'm a big girl almost 6 ft 300 pounds. It makes me very body conscious. In most of my relationships it's been a problem.
Hydrates suprativa in the breasts cysts from nippkes on occasion.
Yes. It only gets worse. In my experience it always gets worse.
