Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic skin condition characterised by painful, inflamed nodules and abscesses, primarily in regions with apocrine sweat glands like the armpits and groin. This recurrent disease can lead to scarring, sinus tract formation, and quality-of-life impacts. Hidradenitis suppurativa's exact cause remains unclear, though genetic and environmental factors play a role.
