I see a lot of tips for reducing flare ups include stop smoking, and while I don't smoke cigarettes, I do smoke weed and vape. I do want to quit vaping, but I self-medicate for other conditions I have with weed, so I'm curious as to how smoking affects HS?
I should add that although I have quit cigarettes, I still smoke marijuana, and have my whole life. It can help with pain and stress, and I do not believe for a minute it would make your hs worse!
I am looking for a pretty fast way to get my most recent really bad HS flare-up to stop hurting me.
😁 and it’s available at my house 🏡 as well if you are passing by sometime 👇👇 😁🤗🤗
I was diagnosed with a severe case of HS last week. I’m on oral doxycycline, topical clindamycin, and an acne wash. However I’m not and never have been a smoker or overweight. I’ve actually spent most of my adult years underweight from an eating disorder. I’m doing better now with the ED as I’ve just had a baby in September. I’m wondeting if the HS onset could be caused by hormonal birth control. I have the kyleena IUD

Just curious cause I’m new. To having Hs , I know smoking Tobacco cause flares but dose marijuana Cause Flare ups Aswell ?

I have been doing research on a more permanent solution for my HS and found articles saying that the flare-ups stop after you go through menopause. I am going to ask my doctor about getting a hysterectomy for this reason as I am almost 40 and do not want children. I am wondering if anyone else has had success with this? I tried hormonal birth control and it has been a nightmare. Almost a constant period and repeat flare-ups that I did not have before trying the birth control.

Here we go to all of my HS family depending on where your HS is when you sit down do you sit down easy And gently find the rite spot that doesn't hurt to bad and someone comes up to you and ask is everything ok well for me I lie and say my back is hurting because it's a pain in the ass to tell them what's really going on and if I have to sit for a long time that can get to be torturous for me don't get me wrong I'm not embarrassed of my HS (I use to be) but sometimes it's just easier to tell… read more
