So since my last post I've done a lot of research into things to help with HS. So today I went into Holland and Barrett and purchase turmer capsules! Which weren't cheap for 100 days worth but like everyone know I'd rather pay £20 for than have the HS flare up! I will let you know if there is any improvements etc.

    Hello Shannon. I 've read other posts on here from people who suggested using turmeric capsules for this soul destroying complaint called HS. I'd be interested to hear your experience. Keep us posted. Best wishes,Dorothy

    Yes they do help with HS, I can vouch for them myself. They have anti inflammatory benefits, also good for pain I believe and a whole host of other things. I take them everyday for my HS, but you dont need to buy the capsules, you can also just buy it and drink it with water I believe. I havent tried it myself, its just a spice. If you make your own curries, buy the spice and put some in. 

    I paid about £8 for 240 capsules off Amazon. Holland and barrett is expensive.

    I forgot to mention, you might read about Zinc aswell. I tried zinc and it made no difference apart from showing up in my blood as I had too much in my system.
