Hi everyone,

Just looking for a bit of advice, I've had HS now for 16 years and I've never had happen to me what is happening now!

I've noticed today that my scars are bleeding, yes scars.. There are no boils present where the bleeding is just old scar tissue.

I haven't done anything vigorous to make the skin split or anything like that but 2 areas of scar tissue have started bleeding heavily without any cause?

Anyone else ever experienced this and what do you do about it??

Thank you in advance.

    old scars have the possibility of opening back up because of the tracks HS causes. That could be it? I would recommend going to your primary doctor if you are sincerely concerned!!
