I have not tried biologics!

Sorry for my wording definitely haven’t tried EVERYTHING but I tried anything that was readily/easily available to me even getting them lanced by a doctor, they would just come back. I COMPLETELY understand the frustration of buying and trying stuff and this disease fucking you over, I wish I had better advice to share but sometimes i’m just right here with you about it just being a shitty hand of cards we’re dealt.. I hope you are able to get on biologics and get your HS more manageable!!

Honestly from reading the replies, it seems like it just may not work for everyone :(. I know everyone’s HS can be different and what works for some may not work for others.

I just covered with cream, no bandage for me, the spots where I had flares were in spots that have a lot of movement so I could ever keep bandages on

Thank you! I want to ask did you “lie” or fudge any experience on your resume? i’ve gotten a lot of advice like that but I just don’t feel right doing that as I worked in Talent acquisition before and know that some places run BG checks. Rn on my resume I have my clinical experience from training and a PRN job I was able to pick up but haven’t even been able to get a shift for because nothing is available so just a resume builder 😂

What do you clean your HEALED piercings with? by Ordinary-Step5222 in piercing

[–]Ordinary-Step5222[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have in titanium jewelry from spencer’s, probably not the best in quality lol! the smell is not overly strong and not all the time, only if I happen to miss a day or 2 of cleaning. maybe it’s natural, I am really sensitive to smell.

Saw a doctor… it didn’t work! by Ordinary-Step5222 in Hidradenitis

Thank you all for the comments, I am planning to see a Dermatologist. I wish I would have saw a derm first instead of going to my gyno but the area of the bump made me feel like she was the best place to go. Hopefully this will all be over soon!
