Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a common (though rarely diagnosed), chronic skin disease characterized by clusters of abscesses or subcutaneous boil-like "infections" (oftentimes free of actual bacteria) that most commonly affects apocrine sweat gland bearing areas, such as the underarms, under the breasts, inner thighs, groin and buttocks.
The disease is not contagious.

Wish it was that simple...i suffered for 20 yrs teens to 30's
armpits (both) bum crutch 1st one early 30's groin area
over the 20 yrs had so many operations to rid me of em wasnt funny
past 30 yrs it seemed yo disappear , bar 1 or 2 small ones which quickly disappeared Past 30 yrs drove trucks with no probs in the areas mentioned
Now for some unknown reason 1 has decided yo rise its ugly head in all places btween top of leg n bottom of body right in the joint.cant bend down cant even put socks on ...si painful fortuanately over the last week its decreased in size but still there and discharging pus.....OUCH
 
Maybe if you ask nicely Lana will set up your very own private forum in which to display them, perhaps called 'bepp's boils and assorted pustules', but no need to inflict them on the membership at large.
 
I gave you Empathy, you give me a Dislike.

I'm not angry, just disappointed. :(
