hidradenitis suppurativa
I was just about to start a group about this...but I found this one. I'm exstatic! It's good to know that I am not the only person with this problem. Every single week I have a new outbreak either on the inside of my thighs or on my butt. I have learned over time (probably eight years or more) to let them go away on their own, but it's not always that easy. They have a habit of popping up right in my panty line or precisely where my butt meets the chair. Having that pressure on them makes them hurt even worst! Have you found anything that helps yet?
Hi ladykera,
Welcome to EmpowHER. Thanks for sharing your story with us. Am sure it can be very uncomfortable. Some of the causes can be due to hormones, genetics, cigarette smoking and excess weight.
Here's a link that might be helpful on hidradenitis suppurativa.

Thank you so much for the link. It is definitely helpful. This is something that has been plaguing me for ten years so any information or conversation is more than welcome.
