Yes. You may be able to experience periods of remission, but it's not currently a disease that can be cured entirely.

The picture of the removal of my personal experience with HS and it might look 👀 very brutal but infact it was nothing like the pain from HS and the pain was gone no need for pain killers or anything like that 😁👇 this was my second lot of surgery and I had my groin done at the same time 🕰️ 👇😁

Once you get it, yes. And it only gets worse. Deal with it as soon as possible. Even through embarrassment and horror. There are treatments now that weren't available a couple years ago.

Congrats! I cannot wait to find a Dermatologist to do surgery consult for me! I’m on a waiting list. Stage 2 but 1-2x a month for a week I’m in debilitating and excruciating pain.

Happy you did surgery! I’ve heard lots of success stories
