Living with HS
Hi. My name's Jennifer. I'm 41 years old. I got diagnosed about 10 years ago with HS and I just had a recent flare up. This one's the biggest one I think I've ever had and I wish people around me knew about it more. A lot of doctors around here don't.
Can't find relief It's on my thigh. I get them on my belly, on my legs and on my underarms. I have the high stage, they said, and I wish I could find a doctor that could help me with relief. It's not fun at all. Whoever has it, trust me. You're not alone. I hate my body with my scars and my flare-ups and I don't think I've ever worn shorts and tank top my whole life, even before the HS.
