| Description | Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is difficult to diagnose and often refractory to conventional treatment which make its treatment and management very challenging for clinicians. The treatment option can vary according to the stage of the disease. For each patient, proper education is recommended, including options for conservative treatment, psychosocial support, options for pain relief, and treatment of suppurative manifestations with the application of appropriate wound coverage. To achieve minimal recurrence, surgical therapy has its place at every stage of the disease. A multidisciplinary approach including mainly dermatologist and plastic surgeon is key to prompt optimal disease control. |
