I had my first instance in my underarms in 2016 and had surgery to remove. I had my Vitamin D levels tested then and they were in the "severe deficiency" range. I've been taking supplements ever since to get my levels up but haven't been so consistent lately with it. My next flare up happened a few months ago during the Covid lock down (under a lot of work stress) kind of in the groin area but seemed to clear up quite quickly once I started taking my Vitamin D3 everyday again.

I am in remission because I'm on keto, no sugar, no carbs (potatoes, pasta, rices and breads).....really it's all about sugar....carbs turn into sugar when your body is processing them
I'm on it as well. It works with consistency. Definitely will have you going to the bathroom it's also a diuretic
Something mild
I have been hearing about the Castor Oil, I got some.. this one specifically.. and it did give me instant relief. On open wounds, and inflammation, itself. Picture attached. Found on Amazon!
There are a lot of different things you can use to get them to a head and bust, is that what it did for you? Does it help any other way, I'm always looking for new ideas.
Depends on how extensive it is
I do. Especially when I can see it's ready to burst.
I have heard many say their discharge is smelly. Mine is odorless in both areas. I swear this thing is the devil.
No need for the sweat bands now. The Aloe Vera Oil has stopped the drainage and the itching. I wish I would have used this once they appeared on my butt. Ugh!. Anyone need some pickle ball sweat bands… read more
Hi all, I am new here and wanted to get opinions from people taking Doxycycline Hyclate 100mg daily for long term control of your HS. I am concerned about the long term use of it on my gut and all that it does & destroys within the stomach and elsewhere in the body. I was taking it daily for 6 months and it kept my flares to maybe 1 or 2 during that time. I stopped taking it about 4 or 5 months ago and all was good with HS flares. Now in the last 3 weeks or so I have had 2 flares so far.

My question for you is ? What is the worst part of your HS . I know the answer is all of it but what is the one. The pain, scars,mental stress, or the smell? For me it's all .But the smell is it for me I've had this shit for 30+ years and the every day pain I guess is something I've got used to over the years and the scars really don't bother me but I do feel bad for you ladies and the mental is I will not let HS defeat me I will fight this shit until there is a cure or until they put me in… read more
