On this day I realized the importance of having a community. I was one who never talked about my disease or let people help me. Once I stopped hindering myself from receiving help and talking about my pain, I was able to find an outlet for it. #hidradenitissuppurativa #vlog #FYP

I was 30 when I was diagnosed. For years my doctors said everything from "wash better" to "it's bacteria." One look at the gaping holes in my armpits and the dermatologist said, "Yea, that's HS.". My girlfriend told me what it was before anyone.

Thank you for this. It took 29 years to finally receive my diagnosis. I had to research it myself and beg doctors, until one day - I went septic. Only then did I receive a diagnosis. This is unacceptable. #NEISvoid #HidradenitisSuppurativa #23_L

I am one of those 80 million. It completely changed everything about my life. In and of itself, HS is the most physically painful thing that I have experienced. My body is covered in scars and I cry every time I have flares. However, I won't give in to it....not now, not ever.
1% might not sound like a lot but it means that 80 million people have hidradenitis suppurativa. Know the facts hidrawear.com/about-hs/ #hidradenitissuppurativa #HS #BeAGP #MedTwitter #DermTwitter #thegreathsawarenesscampaign #HSawarenessweek2022
