I hate that one comment from someone who doesn’t know what their talking about can literally change the way we feel about ourselves. I’m glad you are in a better place Queen❤🙏🏾
I am crying... struggling with HS since almost 12 years and „officially diagnosed 4 years ago“ (24 years old now). Nobody can understand the pain, just the people who are dealing with it. The scars and hyperpigmentations are also two facts breaking my heart everytime I see them. So thankful to found your channel here and that you mentioned the point that Hygiene has nothing to do with HS! I am working on my HS, lost 60lbs, eat well with less sugar and try to be confident with my body. I am sending so much love to you and everybody in the comment section. We are strong and beautiful ❤️
I’ve heard the “obesity” argument, but I first got this when I weighed 120lbs, and I was miserable. I had multiple boils, large flares that drained constantly, and I was in pain daily. Now that I’m much much heavier, I hadn’t had a large, painful flare in over a decade until this weekend. I’ve been having the worst HS AND LS flares in years lately right after my Covid vaccines.
Thank you for the video😁😁😁. I have HS and I found out a year ago. I remember crying after getting diagnosed I was only 14 and I went into a deep depression😢. I acted like it wasn't even real. Two years later I stumbled upon one of your videos and the tears were flowing out of my eyes😭😭😭. I was inspired by your videos so much that I had to look into myself to change my life and habits. Every day is a struggle but I am fighting.💪💪💪
I hope you know ...I watched your videos years ago and you were the only one who taught me what I know today thank you I've been living with HS for 10 years
I am going through this. I was recently diagnosed. I am one of the cleanest woman you will every know so I know it didn't come because I didn't take care of myself. It's giving me hell! I changed my diet!
@@BeautifulBrwnBabyDol you’re so welcome! Your videos have helped me develop a lot as a woman and helped me understand HS! So thank you for your encouraging words!!
I have HS using the tumeric topical and pill form from your suggestions in earlier videos!! It has worked so well!! Still have breakouts but alot less!! Please keep 🙏 video coming! So helpful and good to know I am not the only person suffering from this condition!
Dr. Nina, I used to get painful boils in my armpits when I over used deodorants morning and night after bathing. Arrid, Rightguard and Secret were the popular brands back then. My underarm hair disappeared also. I stopped using deodorant altogether, and the boils went away. I discovered that I did not have underarm odor for years. Recently, I noticed a slight odor after much physical activity. I only use baby powder on clean armpits to this day. No more boils, fortunately for me.
I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart. As a guy who has been going through HS for the last several years ever since I hit puberty. I'm 23 now and I recently decided enough is enough and that I want to take care and treat my HS. I told my dermatologist about this and she prescribed some stuff but also following your tips and tricks have helped me a lot. The issue I have currently is that there is no bandage or bandaid or anything that can stick properly to my skin that can cover up my boils. Apologies for the TMI but I find it difficult with my penis and balls in the way that the bandages or Gause or anything I use to cover up my groin area just comes off after I move or do anything. I'm very careful with the type of underwear I wear and clothing, amount of sweat and I keep it clean as much as I can but I'm getting frustrated. Anywho thank you so much for making these videos.
I've known I had HS all my life but only got diagnosed November 2023 after 47yrs living with it. Very painful disorder. Glad you are helping people to get over this.
Thank you for the videos you've made over the years. I've had the condition for 9 years. After a ton of research, the last few months I've had my HS undercontrol. I take zinc, turmeric, and women's vitamins daily. I eliminated night shades , dairy, and simple carbs from my diet. I use antibacterial soap and occasionally hibiclens to shower. I wear loose fitting clothing and change if I've been sweating. If I notice a flare coming I use PRID and it seems to go away if I catch it early. I've found covering an open flare with a gauze pad and securing it with a small strip of kinesiotape allows me to move freely and the adhesive isn't as abrasive to my skin.
I have had since I was 19 years old, it so crazy people don’t know pain until they had flare up of HS. I use antibiotic soap daily, but I can honestly say because of my weight loss due being dx with diabetes. Your video on HS many many years ago is how I found you. Thank you so much for sharing
I was diagnosed with HS. I gotta admit, I am in a very low and dark place right now, currently having really bad breakouts. But seeing your video is helping. Thank you!
My mother and I both suffered from this. I only get the every few years now. But, I have an autoimmune disease, so stress can assist in bringing mine on. I most recently had 4!!! in the same area of my thighs. I was so miserable, but all I could do was use antiseptic and keep the area as dry and clean as possible. Which meant I would bathe 2-3 times a day and apply my cream and antiseptic. Using separate cloth and towels for my thighs and underarms ( I get them there too) finally after 3 weeks they went away.
I hate mine I get the creators and it's very painful thank you for these videos. I'm mad that it cost so much for these health foods. I'm also grateful for the man in my life for being understanding cause mine mainly happen on my butt
Ask your dermatologist about Humira, it will try it up and reduce outbreaks to 95%. I experienced my outbreaks in the same area but after taking Humira I don’t have hardly any outbreaks. You will see a difference after your first injection.
Preach! Yes I have HS and you are correct that's is a pain beyond belief. Mines has also been linked to my stress level. I get them in my armpit and go to my surgeon to have them taken care of. Thanks for your information!
I have HS but nobody knows about it even my mom , I don’t wanna tell anybody Idk why , but I’m so insecure about it and it’s painful I’m even don’t have the ability for the medicals . Thank you for speaking about it ❤❤
I started getting symptoms at 16, it got worse at 18 through 20 when I was homeless and finally got a diagnosis at 24, it's severely impacted my life. I also have bipolar which makes sense I'm actually watching my body get disfigured.
I suffer from this! Between medication, radiation, scarring, etc.. thank you for this! I’m working with a nutritionist on foods to avoid and what’s the best way for me to control my diet!
I love this video. I have suffered from hs for 7 consecutive years and i never knew what it was or how to treat it. Being in consistent pain for 7 year and scaring is horrible. I can't wait to try so of this treatments
I have been following you since the beginning and I am soooo happy to know you no longer have flairs!! My diet is probably the main thing that needs to change so I can completely rid them but I’ve definitely loss the weight 😩😩
I appreciate these videos so much🌹My armpits are the worse they have ever been and now I’m getting them under my breasts. I feel like I’ve tried EVERYTHING and nothing works. I’m currently taking metformin and doxycycline prescribed by my dermatologist but I feel like they aren’t working anymore and my self esteem has plummeted. But I will continue to figure it out until I find something that works for me.
I don’t think you understand how much you have helped me be open about it to my friends and how much this had made me less insecure about it! I am a 14 year old girl and this is something that has been changing my life for a few years now and I had no idea what it was untill I found you and the pain it has brought me from time to time was one of the worst pains ever but I will be trying everything I mean everything to try and get my skin better and to get rid of all my scars . I mostly have them under my armpits and between my thighs and it’s the worst to be 14 year old girl going through this and not going out or showing skin because of this horrible skin condition I feel so so ugly when I look at myself but you have made this so much better for me and so for much other young women!! Thank you so much for these videos!💓💓
Thank you so much for this! It’s relieving to see someone that looks like me that also has HS. I was diagnosed 3 weeks ago following a wide excision surgery. I never heard of the condition prior to my experience. I definitely will take into consideration all your recommendations!
Thank you Dr. Nina! Your videos on HS helped me to identify it for myself! I’ll be making the oil mixture and reviewing the old videos to get my HS in order! I’ve been eating a vegan based diet and losing weight to reduce HS symptoms. I’ve also been using tea tree oil at the sign of a flare up. It’s helped tremendously but I still have work to do!
My Sister and I were never diagnosed, however, we went through these same exact symptoms in the late 80's, early 90's. Now that I am 46, my underarms, inner thighs, and, bikini line, are scarred for life. I have holes, yes holes, in my underarms, where I use to squeeze out the un-natural antiperspirant/deodorant and hair. My Mother didn't understand nor cared because she never went through this.
Thank you so much for being honest with your situation to everyone. We are all going through something in this world, but it gets better with God involved in our situations. I thank God for people that are still helpful to others like you are and may God continue to bless you. Thanks again! 👍🏾👍🏾
First off thank you so much for spreading awareness and knowledge on HS. I recently just discovered that what I had was actually HS. I’ve been getting the worst flare ups on my scalp. My work requires for hair covers and caps and it’s so frustrating with trying to help my scalp issues. Would these products including your oil mix be safe to use on the scalp? I have been growing my hair out because I’m too embarrassed to show all of my scars and bumps all over my scalp. I’m scared of hair loss if I use certain products not meant for the head. Thank you for this video again. I’m taking all the tips and using them to help me on this difficult journey
Dr. Nina, I am so glad you posted this and I have never had one before but during COVID I had got one under my arm. I was so scared and I'm like where is that video she had and I couldn't find it. I had to really work with it and it took me a month and I finally got it to come to a head. Thank you and some how I am going to try to save this! Can you please attach some of the old videos because I couldn't find the previous one.
Please ask your doctor about Oracea. My daughter suffers with HS and this prescription has stopped her outbreaks. She had them so bad she couldn’t walk and we had a health care aid to help her. This medication has stopped them completely along with her diet. My daughter is also Autistic. She is very self conscious about her scars. I’m sitting in the hospital right now while she’s in recovery from surgery. She has fibroids and they found endometriosis. We have to take care of ourselves and share information to help us. Blessings to you and I wish you the best of health!
Thank you so much for an update. I absolutely love your videos it was your video I first seen on HS and I use every single product you use I learned so much on this condition from watching your videos helped me out a lot big difference thank you again 😘
Thank you so much for all of your videos on this condition. I'm 17 and was just diagnosed yesterday, I'm so afraid but don't feel alone at the same time. I well up with tears just talking about it but I know that changing my lifestyle will be hard yet necessary 💕
Thank you for always being so informative and down to earth. I always enjoy watching your videos. Can you do a video about pcos and how to combat it. Also the issue with excess hair under the chin and other areas, and effective ways to treat it.
I’m going through this hs situation right now. I am 20 years old, it’s the most painful and embarrassing thing I’ve ever experienced. I’ve become so depressed dealing with it and it doesn’t help that I’ve gained weight as well. I feel like I’m hopeless ..
Yes many times under my arm the pain is real deep I went to doctor to get it lanced keep on draining. I had them to it was like knots under my skin I couldn't even raise my arm up. Smh
I've read that antiperspirants with aluminum can cause it because it can clog the hair follicles. I switched to just a natural deodorant instead, but it doesn't stop the sweating. What deodorant do you use? Also, is there a particular razor that can help when you have this?
I saw this on a show on TLC were this Indian Doctor removes this and cysist on thr skin. Big boils etc .can you talk about PCOS which I suffer. Question for those like myself who cant take pills can you open it and take the pills? Good information👍❤
Love all your videos, I actually got diagnosed from watching your videos and had to inform my doctors at the time. Changed my diet lost 30 pounds got pregnant despite having pcos. My boils have gotten worst to point they show up in another form called pyoderma gangrenosum. I am now faced with the decision of taking Humeria. That scares me due to the fact I work with patients closely everyday and the side effects are deadly. Any advice anyone or Dr Nina on Humeria?
It's my 7th year with HS and doctors in South African don't seem to have any information about it.. How do I get my wounds to close up. They become very painful cause clothes get stuck in the open wounds

Hi Dr.Nena! Mayne you can help me out with a solution. What would you recommend for dry patches on the skin? They usually come out as one or two at a time but this year it has been more in different areas of the body. I do my best to moisturize but i still get them.
Old school. Baking soda and vinegar paste. Apply after shower. It will help restore your ph balance which is a major cause of odor. I don't use deodorant at night at all. Also don't overuse deodorant. If you don't work out, a swipe or two is all you need. Wash armpits morning and night using mixture before applying deodorant.
I also found that the Dr Bronners soap helps a lot with odor! I love it !!! I will never go back to regular soap the regular blue one is like mint but be careful where you apply !
My little cousin has HS and I’m on a mission to help her because her mother isn’t capable. Thank you for educating me and giving me the knowledge to help out the next generation. I hate seeing her cry and feel defeated. Imma straighten that crown and teach her how to take care of herself from the inside out💪🏾🙏🏾❤️
From the inside out is how to do it. Bless you ❤ we need more ppl helping out young ppl affected by this one. Terrible thing and it can be fought day by day!

I LOVE how you made sure it’s not about poor hygiene!! I have a family member who swears that’s why I have it and it’s made me feel so insecure 😞
I hate that one comment from someone who doesn’t know what their talking about can literally change the way we feel about ourselves. I’m glad you are in a better place Queen❤🙏🏾
Or they tell you it's "just a boil" or "just stop shaving" 🤦♀️ drives me crazy cause it's extremely painful and I quit shaving and still got it.
I am crying... struggling with HS since almost 12 years and „officially diagnosed 4 years ago“ (24 years old now). Nobody can understand the pain, just the people who are dealing with it.

😞😩 I pray we get this together…. It breaks my heart every time I seen them as well. I’m 21…. It started young for me as well!
My girl has it and I want her quality of life and self esteem to flourish
I have it too. It makes me so insecure with my body, the scars are so present....
Yes, they are a art of your journey. Take the best care of you in spite,
I LOVE how you emphasize that it has nothing to do with your hygiene. This video is helpful, thank you!!!❤️
Its so important! Thanks for being here!
I love this as well
yes, cuz i thought it was my bath/shower schedule. it was my exs extremely heavy cigarette smoking.

Dr. Nina, I am so glad you posted this and I have never had one before but during COVID I had got one under my arm. I was so scared and I'm like where is that video she had and I couldn't find it. I had to really work with it and it took me a month and I finally got it to come to a head. Thank you and some how I am going to try to save this! Can you please attach some of the old videos because I couldn't find the previous one.
I've had it since I can remember, before 6 years old. I've had it for 30 years. I have so much scarring. Any tips are welcome and appreciated.
This is so painful 😥 but this video is helpful
Thanks for this video. My preteen has HS and I’ve been trying to figure out how I can help her. I’m going to rewatch this with her.
Been dealing with hs since 16 found out what it was at 22 im not 28 and its still a beast of its own . every other month it becomes debilitating
Please ask your doctor about Oracea. My daughter suffers with HS and this prescription has stopped her outbreaks. She had them so bad she couldn’t walk and we had a health care aid to help her. This medication has stopped them completely along with her diet. My daughter is also Autistic. She is very self conscious about her scars. I’m sitting in the hospital right now while she’s in recovery from surgery. She has fibroids and they found endometriosis. We have to take care of ourselves and share information to help us. Blessings to you and I wish you the best of health!
I was diagnosed in 2017 but it started in 2015. This helps. Thank you 😊
Does anyone flair ups coinside with their period and react to shaving?
Yes

Thank you so much for all of your videos on this condition. I'm 17 and was just diagnosed yesterday, I'm so afraid but don't feel alone at the same time. I well up with tears just talking about it but I know that changing my lifestyle will be hard yet necessary 💕
Thank you for always being so informative and down to earth. I always enjoy watching your videos. Can you do a video about pcos and how to combat it. Also the issue with excess hair under the chin and other areas, and effective ways to treat it.
Been dealing with this since 2010 thanks for the video . Very informative
I’m going through this hs situation right now. I am 20 years old, it’s the most painful and embarrassing thing I’ve ever experienced. I’ve become so depressed dealing with it and it doesn’t help that I’ve gained weight as well. I feel like I’m hopeless ..
I'm going to take your advice. I will talk to a dermatologist and get good products. Thank you for these videos. 😌😌😌
Yep. I’ve experienced this a lot in my life. Thank you for this video.

I appreciate this video so much.
How do you manage outbreaks caused by sweating or working out
Thank you so much, I am from the UK ❤️
I love this video. It was very helpful
I have it now and it's hurt like hell
I've read that antiperspirants with aluminum can cause it because it can clog the hair follicles. I switched to just a natural deodorant instead, but it doesn't stop the sweating. What deodorant do you use? Also, is there a particular razor that can help when you have this?
Wow, I didn't think about panty liners!
I saw this on a show on TLC were this Indian Doctor removes this and cysist on thr skin. Big boils etc .can you talk about PCOS which I suffer.
Question for those like myself who cant take pills can you open it and take the pills? Good information👍❤
Very helpful video. Thankyou
Preach! All true !
I would love to get the vitamin but I can't have iodine.
very very very helpful. I always thought surgery is the only way to clean it. huhu
I get boils seems like it’s a condition but not as severe as it’s was. But i don’t understand the cause
I have it and it’s just not getting better I went to the dr but nothing really helping I’m gonna try this
Ik this is an old comment but you should try a new doctor if possible
Yasssssss my gwoooorl
Thank you 🙏🏾
Love all your videos, I actually got diagnosed from watching your videos and had to inform my doctors at the time. Changed my diet lost 30 pounds got pregnant despite having pcos. My boils have gotten worst to point they show up in another form called pyoderma gangrenosum. I am now faced with the decision of taking Humeria. That scares me due to the fact I work with patients closely everyday and the side effects are deadly.
Any advice anyone or Dr Nina on Humeria?
I have HS and I found that not eating nightshades has kept me in remission.
It's my 7th year with HS and doctors in South African don't seem to have any information about it.. How do I get my wounds to close up. They become very painful cause clothes get stuck in the open wounds
The pills you take how are the vegan , dairy free but they have calcium c in it ?
Calcium does not equal dairy love 😀vegan.com/health/calcium/#:~:text=Vegans%20and%20omnivores%20alike%20often,can%20provide%20excellent%20calcium%20status.
Horrible experiences… I’m 21 now. it started early for me. I was diagnosed at about 18 or 19.
Do you eat yeast or dairy? If so do you notice any flare ups after you’ve eaten such foods?
Anybody ever took Minocycline for their HS?
Hi Dr.Nena! Mayne you can help me out with a solution. What would you recommend for dry patches on the skin? They usually come out as one or two at a time but this year it has been more in different areas of the body. I do my best to moisturize but i still get them.
Miss you 💜
Thanks u so.much
My Question while having this what is good in getting ride of the underarm odor deodorant doesn't work natural nor regular tried lots
Yea I have this and I don't wear deoderent in stick form at all bc of my boils. I try to use a spray on dry deoderent.
Old school. Baking soda and vinegar paste. Apply after shower. It will help restore your ph balance which is a major cause of odor. I don't use deodorant at night at all. Also don't overuse deodorant. If you don't work out, a swipe or two is all you need. Wash armpits morning and night using mixture before applying deodorant.
@@LeilaniLuvinMe Awesome thnks it's so annoying, is that only for underarms
@@debbiehoward8066 yes for odor.
I also found that the Dr Bronners soap helps a lot with odor! I love it !!! I will never go back to regular soap the regular blue one is like mint but be careful where you apply !
My fiance has it and he is so stubborn.
My little cousin has HS and I’m on a mission to help her because her mother isn’t capable. Thank you for educating me and giving me the knowledge to help out the next generation. I hate seeing her cry and feel defeated. Imma straighten that crown and teach her how to take care of herself from the inside out💪🏾🙏🏾❤️
❤❤ thankful for you
From the inside out is how to do it. Bless you ❤ we need more ppl helping out young ppl affected by this one. Terrible thing and it can be fought day by day!
