Members shared their personal experiences with Bimzelx after a community member asked about this new biologic treatment for HS. Several members described the injections as quite painful, especially in the thigh, and noted side effects like facial breakouts and temporary worsening of symptoms, while others reported little to no pain and gradual improvement over weeks. A recurring theme was cautious hope, with many members encouraging each other to stay the course, noting that results varied widely but that some found meaningful relief even at severe stages of HS.

I have had it for three months. It does work but ... It made my entire face breakout and the shot hurts. I thought it hurt near the belly button but the thigh was way worse. If you can handle pain and don't mind the side effects give it a try.
