Effective cure or treatment for hidradenitis suppurativa? (HS)
This is a chronic and relapsing condition occurring within apocrine sweat glands, most commonly in women. Deep seated inflammatory nodules form in the axilla, groin, pubic region, and perineum. It is an androgen-dependent disorder and results from keratinous material occluding the sweat pores. There is an association with lithium therapy and Crohn's disease.
In this disease, the skin shows a deep seated mixed inflammatory cell infiltrate with scarring, granulation tissue, and foreign body giant cells. Chronic abscesses and sinus tracts leading to the surface may develop. Early and new lesions show a suppurative folliculitis.
