Hidradenitis Suppurativa
Seeing the dermatologist is the starting point when painful, recurring bumps appear in areas with skin folds; this is how hidradenitis suppurativa, a chronic skin condition, is treated.
What is it? It is an inflammatory disease that produces nodules, abscesses and, over time, tracts under the skin, especially in the armpits, groin, and other areas with folds.
Common symptoms: Painful lesions that may become inflamed, drain, and reappear in the same spots.
Which specialist treats it? The dermatologist, including pediatric dermatology in younger patients, provides the follow-up, and the gynecologist may take part depending on the affected area. The most useful thing is an early evaluation with a professional to help monitor its course.
