The goal of this book is to help individuals with hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) to learn more about HS and how to effectively manage this condition. This book is also designed for family members and friends of HS patients, as well as generalist healthcare practitioners who would like to increase their understanding of HS and the challenges associated with this condition.
Note: Deadline for application as of March 15, 2024
Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a painful, long-term skin condition that causes abscesses and scarring on the skin. The exact cause of hidradenitis suppurativa is unknown, but it occurs near hair follicles where there are sweat glands, usually around the groin, bottom, breasts and armpits.
THE PAIN IS TO THE CORE, TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS DEBILITATING. AS A RESULT, I LEARNT TO LANCE MY LESIONS.
WE REALLY NEED MORE DISEASE AWARENESS AND SUPPORT.
