Flare On Breast
Been to see the nurse this morning because I was a bit concerned about how my previously drained one was healing but all is well with that ☺️ but asked her too take a look at one that had appeared on my breast. She brought in the doctor to take a look. He is changing my antibiotics as I am currently on some for strep throat. He has said if it doesn’t drain itself by Monday or reduce in size he wants me to go and get this one drained and be referred to the breast clinic. Now I was referred to the… read more
Amber, in some of my research, they have linked HS and skin cancer. Some research showed a possible link to other types of cancer as well. Perhaps your doctor is erring on the side of caution?

😞 I've been there. 😣 My heart goes out to both of you. I'm not entirely sure why the leaking, swelling lesions backed off. Treatment for the HS under my arms? 🤔 I still have the scars and periodically I will get some swelling and have to drain it out, but it's nothing like what it used to be. I will say, I have more problems with the HS when I don't wear a bra. I'm big busted and my breasts couldn't breathe. I stopped wearing wired bras and got the breathable platex ones. I kept 4x4 gauze bandages in my bra on the lesions and changed them frequently. I'm from Florida so I sweat horribly in the summer especially under my breasts! 🙄 I used white vinegar to neutralize the sweat and bacteria from it. Wearing a bra was excruciating, I know that pain! 😢 But staying home was not an option for me at the time and I had to lift the girls. 😒 I will still get a slight flare in the heat of summer if I don't keep myself seriously clean and dry. I'm always telling people to use white vinegar. I do this because it's cheap and easy to use and purchase. White vinegar helps neutralize bacteria and does not damage the good skin. You only smell like a pickle for a minute or two! 😂
I have this one too as well the one on my right boob wouldn't go away for nothing finally after wound care for months they started packing the holes on the ends with some sort of flakes and finally it went down it is still there but not really inflamed right now
Very correct 👍

U could use an old torn up 100% cotton tee , sheets , flannel ECT and change out and wash dry. This is more economical in the research I did and way more comfortable; u could use a period pad , as well !!! Men For You All Too …. A first aid for all; not just for HS people….. camping, hunting , fishing these pads come in handy for lots of things ….. go to You Tube / to find out

I Find It Strange That They Tell You It Only Occurrs In The Arms And Legs...this Is So Not True! Does Anyone Else Have This In Other Areas?
Does Anyone Else Get Flares In Atypical, Random Areas?
