Any Tips On Bandaging Flare Ups While Allergic To Band-aid Adhesives?
A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

I’ve tried lots of brands (Australia) and some irritate my skin less but I cant keep something covered for more than a few days without raw and painful skin. My flare ups are usually in my groin as well which makes things more awkward to cover. Thank you!! <3

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

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?🤔

Any Have Problems With Candida Or Blood Sugar?
A myHSteam Member asked a question 💭

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 read that insulin resistancy can play into HS. Ive also had a problem with candida which keeps mast cells inflaming everything. So im curious 'if' my long time gimpy pancreas has caused a blood sugar problem thats causing candida and HS?
