What can trigger and make HS worse. Emotions: Worry, fear, anger, grief. You will flare and if those emotions are not controlled, the flares will get worse.

Have you tried Doxycycline Antibiotics it helps to ease an keep inflammation down but still random breakouts as usual I hope you feel better an don’t stress yourself out

The heat, excessive sweating and friction, certain foods like sweets and carbs. For me dairy is a trigger so I avoid those foods. Shower anytime I sweat a lot and especially during a flare. Found that washing with the bar helps heal it quicker and doesn't irritate the area like when using rags and/or loofas. I grew up using those things and I scrubbed because it's the only way I felt clean so since switching I wash 3 times in every shower and only use scrub gloves on non effected areas of my body. It's really helped a lot. Fresh garlic is a natural anti-inflammatory and antibiotic as is coconut oil (I only use Better Body Foods brand of oil). I use it daily after every shower on my problem areas and add at least 2 tablespoons to my meals and have 2 cloves of fresh garlic at least once a day too. Never been better!!

Not keeping your skin clean. Ointments really don’t work for me. I love to drink . But I know that it causes inflammation. But I still cheat. I don’t sweat I think this is holding me hostage. I need to use my money to go soak in the hot tub at the Crock Center fitness center. I wish they had a program for us to soak for free. With a lot of us being’s disabled. I got 99 problems, and my cyst is the biggest one. 😂 Some time u gotta laugh to keep from Screaming 😱. So long family. Enjoy 😉 your day.

I agree dairy is a big problem with me dealing with HS it seems like it feeds from it I would say stay away from dairy I just stick with a soups and salads no milk cheese sometimes just a little I also changed my diet to more Alkaline foods that help an for sure moisture wicking clothing helps also
