@dr.heatherderm: We often prescribe the antibiotic, doxycycline, for example in HS because it provides anti-inflammatory benefits. #dermatology #hidradenitissuppurativa #hidradenitissuppurativaawareness #dermdocheather

I recently got diagnosed with this and started using a recommend over the counter body wash, and I think I'm a new person. Who knew boils weren't actually a normal thing people just dealt with?

I struggled with them in the groin area only but my mom and sister get them everywhere. I took spironolactone for a month. Haven’t had a boil in almost 10 years 🙏😩

HS is thought to be linked to autoimmune diseases so anti inflammatory medication & a low inflammation Mediterranean diet has helped a few people I know

Is it still HS if it’s only on the groin? Buttocks? I never get any anywhere else. I have an inflammatory autoimmune disease (colitis) so I wonder if that’s why those are the only areas.

I get my HS in my groin area (had one in my armpit so far). Have been getting them for 13 years now. multiple doctors have told me there’s nothing to do. … do I try to see a gyno about it ?
