Hidradenitis Suppurativa can be managed at home with warm compresses, gentle cleansing, keeping skin dry, and wearing loose, breathable clothing to reduce pain, swelling, and irritation. Lifestyle changes like avoiding friction, quitting smoking, maintaining a healthy weight, and reducing high-sugar or processed foods can also help lower flare-ups. You should seek medical care if symptoms become frequent, severe, painful, infected, or start leaving scars, as stronger prescription treatments may be needed for proper control.
