Hidradenitis Suppurativa: Stages of Disease

Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin disorder characterized by the formation of painful abscesses and tunnels beneath the skin. It commonly affects areas where skin folds and rubs together, such as the armpits, groin, buttocks, and under the breasts. The condition often worsens over time and, in severe cases, can lead to significant scarring and a diminished quality of life. Although the exact cause of HS remains unclear, it is thought to be related to an abnormal immune response and is frequently associated with other conditions like Crohn’s disease and metabolic syndrome. Early diagnosis and management are vital to control symptoms and prevent progression of the disease.
