Hi

I have treated it with apparent success! It's a difficult one. If you want to

call me off line I can discuss treatment protocol I took. 0121 6865441. Best

time to get me is possibly early Sat evening.

Hope I can help

Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Hi all,

I'd be really grateful if anyone could help me with this. I've just been

contacted by a 30 year old woman suffering from 15 years of Hidradenitis

Suppurativa which is not being well controlled and is being referred to a

dermatologist to possibly have surgical removal of affected area - only 50%

chance success - other 50% occurs elsewhere.

I don't know much about the condition other than its a chronic inflammatory

condition affecting the skin at sites rich in apocrine glands (e.g. sweat,

mammary) of unknown cause - more common females, hereditary component. Begins

after puberty with swelling and possible abcess and sinus formation - as with

this lady. Some similarity to acne vulgaris - treatment with Dianette,

surgery,

skin grafting.

She had some years of remittance whilst abroad and feels this may be stress

related. Recurrance 1 year after birth of first child when returned to UK.

Has

had several courses of antibiotics when condition has appeared infected.

I wondered if anyone has treated this condition previously or had any ideas of

how best to progress. The lady has tried several alternative treatments with

some short-lived success and I would like to give her a realistic idea of

herbal

treatment outcome.

Any and all ideas very much welcomed,

Many thanks,

Hi there,

Janette - I'd be really grateful if you would be able to share some of your

ideas with us in the group as it is something I have come across. My mum

has the condition and has had sweat glands removed from both axillae but

with no real success. Also suffers from the problem in her groin but has

refused surgery there. I see a huge correlation between her condition and

her mental health - stress, anxiety and underlying rage play a big part in

this very debilitating condition.

I would agree with Lorraine that Berberis, Arctium etc seems a sensible

course of action - but there is always the fear of a flare up.

Kind regards,

Pamela

Thanks to everyone for your advice - I've got a much better idea of how to move

forward with this patient and I feel that I've been able to give her a fair

treatment picture.
