I’ve never had HS surgically removed before and I’m VERY nervous and anxious about it. I want to know what to expect so I can be prepared.
I had it under my breath and arm. I had gotten a infection and went back had surgery to get it out. But it healed nicely no flared under the breast or underarm on that side.
Yes!! My derm even has me on medication to try help this along with antibiotics and I’m currently on flare number three in just over a month. I seem to start from ovulation to period. And get about 7… read more

I had my first de roofing in the groin area done in November of last year and have scheduled 2 more since then because of tunneling that opens through the skin. If you get regular flares or open… read more
I had a previous surgery under my arm. Which happens to be my first ever encounter with hs. But tbh I don't remember what I had done. Well anyway I'm going back in to have it looked at again. What is a surgery u have seen done a second go around. I think I had a deroofing? I'm trying to avoid having one surgery when it should have been something different the second time around if that makes sense. I have heard of instances where docs ( general surgeon) will do the simple less tedious surgery to… read more

I was recently diagnosed last year but realize I have had flare ups for a few years. We just always thought they were ingrown hairs in my groin/pantyline. Currently in the midst of one and I’m miserable. I’m lucky b/c mine aren’t that bad, but I’m terrified of what they could become.
Also I love my Rheumatologist .....

I was diagnosed w HS a year ago and pcos about a 6 years ago and I’ve doing a lot of research.
I tried using tea tree oil and it helps somewhat but lately I’ve been having flares more often.
I’m currently taking metformin and ibuprofen for pain along w a topical cream for antibiotics and quit smoking weed because I read it exacerbates flares.
Wondering if maybe laser hair removal could help diminish the frequency of flares.
Has anyone else had it done and did it improve your condition?🤔
I did hair laser and it did improve my thigh/groin HS.
