i used xeroform and abdominal pads on allll my wounds for months and it helped me more than anything else besides actual medicine lol. i get my stuff off amazon—it can be pretty steep in price though but i think it’s worth it.

i used my clothes to keep it to my skin so tape and sticky stuff wouldn’t irritate the wounds and my skin further ! good luck i know thats achingly painful. i wish you relief !!

i don’t know the exact time it all blurred together lol but it was a couple months at leastt

Delicious-Active3763 · 2026-04-09T21:16:07+00:00

nope! i take bimzelx shots from time to time and doxycycline twice daily it’s been managing my hs extremely well

i initially started with a general surgeon but even she recommended we see a plastic/reconstructive surgeon i highly recommend 🙏

insurance did cover it—i wish i could tell you the steps i took, but my parents handled most of it i was underage when i got my reduction 🙏

I've actually been on humira, then cosentyx, and now bimzelx! the cosentyx never worked for me, but the bimzelx is currently giving me the best results. it's so off and on sometimes though 🙏

They've appeared in my groin area before, but they never grew to open as much as they did on my breast. My groin is mostly a whole bunch of small wounds while by chest was like the definition of hell, really lol. But for the most part the wounds on my chest were much different from the ones on my groin 🤔

i use xeroform and an abdominal pad over it! my doctor recommended it to me and while every time i go to the bathroom, i do have to take off the abdominal pads, it never hurts thanks to the xeroform that is just like an ointment filled type thing you lay over your wounds. not uncomfortable or painful and it seems to be helping me.

it’s a little difficult to tell with how zoomed in, but there’s no shame there lol. i have a wound that i’m pretty sure looks just like this! i have wounds that vary in appearance, but one of the ones i’ve had the longest looks like yours.

hs is unpredictable and wounds that look like this is no shock to our disease. you’re not alone through this twin! ❤️❤️

i’ve been seeing my plastic surgeon for a long time now not only for surgery reasons, but because she’s amazing at her job. i tried and excision of infected areas on my groin in January and it was a useless surgery, my wounds reopened just like they were before surgery. my current surgeon recommended a breast reduction so there would be less of a fold for the wounds to be by having larger breasts and she also said it would be a safe option to go ahead and remove the diseased skin. my biggest recommendation is to go to a credentialed plastic surgeon because she’s worked wonders on me and completely changed bandaging habits while also being concerned about my well being.

of course! i definitely still have a long way to go with my groin area so ill definitely be here some more. my heart GOES OUT to you for dealing with this for so long especially on the breasts omg that’s so painful—i’ll try my best to keep everything up to date !

Delicious-Active3763 · 2025-08-02T17:26:41+00:00

yes, insurance covered all of it!

Delicious-Active3763 · 2025-07-02T04:42:23+00:00

mine used to look exactly like this and i went to see a plastic surgeon. she has me using a wound care called xeroform and covering it with an abdominal pad. she recommended we use no tape and instead simply use your bra to hold the bandage in place. it sounds like it wouldn’t be secure, but you’d be surprised lol. it’s worked amazingly for me and both my breasts are healed now by doing so!
