Have you tried HidraWear products and found them helpful?

Many myHSteam members have found HidraWear helpful for managing HS. The products are specifically designed by someone with HS and include washable, reusable garments with special pockets and fasteners that hold disposable dressings in place without needing tape.

Members have shared positive experiences, with one saying it's "been a game-changer for my mobility" and helps them "get through my day without having to constantly change dressings."

The products include options like crop tops, briefs, boxers, and T-shirts for different affected areas. They're made from breathable materials that help reduce irritation.

One important tip: Most insurance companies actually cover HidraWear products. It's worth checking with your insurance before purchasing out of pocket, as the items can be expensive. Your dermatologist can help provide documentation if your insurance needs proof that the supplies are medically necessary.

While they work well for many people, what helps one person with HS might not work for another, so it may take some experimentation to find what's most comfortable for you.
