Diagnosed with hidradenitis suppurativa today. i only have 1 tiny cyst under arm. no others ever.what are some labs/test to prove or disprove this?

Clinical diagnosis: This fancy word just means the odor producing sweat glands of your armpits developed a pus bearing infection. Whether or not it becomes a longer term problem will depend on the success of your treatment. Some don't like to use the term unless it happens repeatedly.
