    Hi Brandon! You may want to try a warm compress to help the swelling. I run my water as hot as I can take it. I’ve only been lanced once and I don’t think I’ll ever have that done ever again. I cried like a baby during the entire procedure. I recently started Taltz and so far I see significant improvements.   This is a challenging disease, but I’m finally getting some relief. Good luck!

    I have had this for ,20 years I just found out what it was 6 years ago ! Antibiotics make me sick so I won't take them ! So I have been suffering with this in my arm pit and growing I have found that using Dove deordrant is working so far ! It's been a week and it has cleared up my HS ! I pray this keeps working !!
