Hello everyone. I am new on here. Obviously very annoyed and discouraged about my HS and would love any tips and recommendations! Ordering the “HS magic ointment” I have seen posted on here. Anyone have good tips or remedies for the scarring?

How can I help drain one when it's so painful and I've done everything?
I’ve taken hot showers and just let the water fall over it. Don’t place it directly on it but just let it fall. It will hurt but it lets it get to a point to pop and drain. Or hot compresses work just… read more
