Hi, i have hs and had surgery to remove the lumps, can i hv the surgery if the lumps fade? go away?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
HS: If there are fistula forming, surgical procedure may be needed even if the lumps are getting smaller. There is also a biological approved for treating this otherwise intractable condition as well. If you do not have fistula formation as yet, this new medication may be the answer. Ask your dermatologist.
