A member asked:
My daughter,14, has hidradentis suppurative and her body overheals itself. surgery is not an option. what is the safety way to treat this condition?

See dermatologist: Keloid (scar overgrowth) is common with these patients. Some dermatologists have had success doing localized injections of anti-inflammatory steroids to minimize the inflammation & scarring that comes with this disease. It is a lifelong battle but can be improved in many cases.
