Get treatment: You need to see a doctor for an evaluation and proper treatment. If your diagnosis is correct, leaving the lesion untreated could result in spread of infection.

Yes: HS is a frustrating condition because there is not one treatment that works to make it go away. So, the first part of treatment is to find a physician who is comfortable with the condition and that you trust and can talk to about your concerns. The main way to treat is to try to stop swelling around the glands and hairs in certain areas of the body. I copied a link on treatments http://www.hs-foundation.org/about-hs/treatment/
