Hidradenitis suppurativa is a condition that causes painful lumps under the skin that experiences a lot of friction like armpits, groins, buttocks, and breasts. These lumps break open and get connected forming a tunnel under the skin. The factors that worsen this condition are obesity, smoking, stress, hormonal changes, and a humid climate. It usually develops when the hair follicle on the skin get blocked. If left untreated, it can cause infection, scars, restricted movement, and obstructed lymph drainage. Topical antibiotics and painkiller can be used to manage mild to moderate symptoms. There are also various surgical options available.
