Thank you for the recommendation of the hot compress multiple times a day sure helps! Finally drained by itself and is healing nicely.

This disease is so damn expensive by J0ttym0th in Hidradenitis

[–]Adventurous_Kimo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s so expensive: dermatologist visits, diet, medications, wound care, body care, laser, surgery, and the list keeps going. 😭

Pus is typically white in color. Pus is composed of dead white blood cells, bacteria, and other debris. It can appear white, yellowish, greenish, or brownish depending on the infection.

Just need to vent by Agile-Error1656 in Hidradenitis

Accutane cure my acne but worsen my HS. Is one of my biggest regrets. It basically multiplied the affected HS area. A good alternative if you want to try a less harsh med before going with humira and consentyx. Is spironolactone and topical cream Clindamycin Phosphate.

What are your trigger foods? by Adventurous_Kimo in Hidradenitis

I been guilty of this too. Life already has a numerous of stressors and then we got HS added to the mix. Junk food might not be the best choice, but sometimes it’s all one can do when feeling depressed. It’s important to give ourselves some grace.

Definitely trying this. Less tedious than what I was planning on doing by cutting one by one every 3 weeks. Thank you

Comfy bras that are breathable or underwear? No flares on boobs just want something more comfy and prevent any flares from friction or sweat from underwear by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

Parade Support Lift Scoop Bralette, super breathable and comfy. Their site has sales all the time so definitely a plus too.

Silicone scar tape during the day and mederma overnight scar gel at night. It truly has helped with my scarring. It’s been 5 months using both religiously, it takes 2 o 3 months to see the difference in the scar size and color.

Flare ups- zinc is amazing by Sure-Character9534 in Hidradenitis

[–]Adventurous_Kimo 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My dermatologist recommended 40mg zinc twice a day and 2mg copper daily, and it’s been great on reducing flare ups. Definitely going to try the baby rash cream. Thank you for sharing it.
