Does Surgery Help?
I’m going to probably need surgery to have the pockets cleared. The pain goes so deep like beyond my skin deep into the internal groin area. It’s spreading so I feel like, is there a chance surgery will make it worse, or is there a chance it won’t help at all?
And is it a red flag if the Derm always makes weird references to her age every time I see her?

Has Anyone Used Molasses To Treat Flare Ups?
A colleague of mine has skin issues and has been using molasses to treat it. She's suggested I try it for my HS, it also also known to treat acne so I've gotten some to hopefully help with that.

Has Anyone Had A Cyst That Tracked From Armpit To Your Heart?
I am a heart patient, triple bypass. As the tunnel under my arm is growing toward my chest, it's making my chest ache uncomfortably, spreading through to the back of my shoulder blade. Like a mild heart attack. But I think it's just from the pain of the tunnel. Anyone had this experience before?
I would get it checked out. An ECG (EKG) will rule out heart problems v. tunnel issues.
