What are the Signs and Symptoms of HS?
If you have this skin disease, you may notice breakouts on your skin that look like pimples or boils. The following picture show how HS develops and how it can worsen without treatment:
3 Stages of Hidradenitis Suppurativa
1
Single or multiple abscesses without tunneling or scaring
2
Recurrent abscesses with tunnel formation separated by normal skin
3
Numerous abscesses across a large area with no normal skin separation
Patients with Stage 2 and 3 Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) require thorough evaluation and surgical treatment consideration due to the severity of their infection.
Early symptom detection can significantly impact treatment outcomes by addressing issues when they are more manageable.
