I have used Emuaid Max and I think it helped promote the bursting of the boil. But this is all new so not 100%. 😞

Emuaid, which contains emu oil, is sometimes used by people with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) to manage symptoms. Some members of the HS community have reported positive experiences with it:

- Relief from Pain: One member mentioned, “No lie, the Emuaid has saved my life. When I know it’s starting, I rub a dab on the spot and wear it for a week as deodorant. I am not having any pain.”
- Faster Healing: Another member noted that emu cream/oil helps with flare-ups by reducing inflammation and helping abscesses open faster.

However, it's important to remember that more research is needed to confirm the effectiveness of emu oil for HS. Always consult with a healthcare provider before adding new treatments to your regimen.
