Make your bandage. Get a paper towel (I use Costco brand) cotton ball in the middle, and I use paper tape (Amazon box of 12 forgot $) Vaseline so it won't stick to the skin. Good luck

Are you referring to symptoms that might be related to hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) on the face? HS typically affects areas with apocrine glands like underarms, groin, and under the breasts, but it can occasionally appear on the face, although this is less common. Symptoms on the face might not always be HS and could be due to other skin conditions like acne or folliculitis. It's important to consult with a healthcare provider for an accurate diagnosis and appropriate treatment.
