Hi Sue, I find that dairy, sweets, yeast and nightshades make my HS really bad. If I ever have them the damage is irreparable and I end up having to go through surgery to drain it. I stay away from… read more
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

Hydrates suprativa in the breasts cysts from nippkes on occasion.
Just care for it
Definitely go to a hospital if you have any symptoms of possible sepsis. It can come on extremely fast and it is important you listen to your body.
Does anyone else have any other skin issues. I’ve noticed my skin has always been sensitive even when I get rashes from allergies. I’m allergic to everything🙃
I also received allergy shots. I also wonder if that could’ve affected my system lol
I use hibiclens and other natural soaps that are hydrating to combat the dryness from hibiclens.
Im trying to figure out "what" is causing my mast cells to be triggered & keeping this inflammatory nightmare going. I dont smoke, not obese but i DO have chronic pancreatitis. I read that insulin resistancy can play into HS. Ive also had a problem with candida which keeps mast cells inflaming everything. So im curious 'if' my long time gimpy pancreas has caused a blood sugar problem thats causing candida and HS?
Thanks. I think the blood sugar is causing the candida. Which in turn keeps my mast cells triggered and causing constant inflammation. I want sure if anybody on here has candida issues as well?
I have had a 'cyst' for a over a year. It does not drain unless I squeeze it and it is mostly blood. It normally doesn't get inflamed but if it does, it is not major. It only hurts if I try to squeeze it. My derm says it's HS. I'd like to take my chances and have someone lance it. When it first presented, I thought it was an ingrown hair from waxing. It is right in the bikini line area. Has anyone had a non-draining, 'flat' cyst that is HS? It is very dark in color. Also, if I do have it lanced… read more
Thank you so much!!!!!
Looking for affordable but proven over the counter treatments others have used. I know everyone is different but has worked for you? 💖 Also bandage/dressing for the area? Cheek area specifically. Sorry to be bother and ask so many questions 😣😵💫
Make your bandage. Get a paper towel (I use Costco brand) cotton ball in the middle, and I use paper tape (Amazon box of 12 forgot $) Vaseline so it won't stick to the skin. Good luck
