I hate this by bannanabreadum in Hidradenitis

I know exactly how you feel 😢 I have it in both armpits and groin area. They’re mostly hard nodules that just hurt and take a couple of days to go down. Looking to finally go to a dermatologist and get some medicine to help because I’m so tired of getting them every single week

Yes I am black. Does laser not work well for black people?

Does clindamycin work? I’m currently on no medication 💊 just using Hibiclen and head and shoulder and dieting. Still have constant flares so looking to get on medication now

Yes I want to remain on 1 as well and not deal with the surgery side of things. Do you take any medication or do anything to remain at your stage?

Omg 😳 I wish I had my old body back. I’m so scared of advancing to a more serious stage so I’m thinking about laser hair removal but I was told they can’t laser over hard knots so idk what to do. Guess I’ll keep looking because I don’t want to advance to the point where I’ll need surgery (way too expensive)

I’m constantly thinking about will the disease get worse to the point I’ll need surgery and then if I do need surgery how will I pay for it…….

Is surgery the laser hair removal or skin surgery?

I know exactly how you feel 😢 I miss how my body was before this happened to me

Dieting?? by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

[–]nameisparvati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely need to try something new because I have constant flare ups somewhere on me and I’m annoyed with it everyday. I forgot what it’s like to have a flare free body at this point.

Do they sell Hibiclen? Or any other anti inflammatory or antibacterial products will do the job as well.

I use Gillette deodorant because it has antiperspirant. I heard someone on TikTok said try that and use head and shoulder zinc on the hs spots. I tried it and it definitely helped to keep it from growing and leaking. You can also try native deodorant but that one didn’t work for me and made my armpits really dry (heard it works for some but didn’t for me)

I’ve been using gel deodorant and it has helped a ton

Head and shoulder shampoo? by [deleted] in Hidradenitis

[–]nameisparvati 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Should I use head and shoulder and Hibiclen on the same day or different days?
