Can Anyone Recommend A Great Doctor In The NYC/Long Island Area? My Dermatologist Haven’t Been Great; Should I See An Immunologist?
A myHSteam Member asked a question đź’­

I was recently diagnosed last year but realize I have had flare ups for a few years. We just always thought they were ingrown hairs in my groin/pantyline. Currently in the midst of one and I’m miserable. I’m lucky b/c mine aren’t that bad, but I’m terrified of what they could become.

Has Laser Hair Removal Help Anyone With Flares?
A myHSteam Member asked a question đź’­

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.
Wondering if maybe laser hair removal could help diminish the frequency of flares.
Has anyone else had it done and did it improve your condition?🤔

I did hair laser and it did improve my thigh/groin HS.
