I have read alot of these remedies and some do work. I have Hydranitis Suppurtiva for short HS. Alot of people don't even know about this but it is when you have black heads usually under your arms or your breast or on your inner thigh and they turn into BIG boils or abscesse like things that drain yellow puss and they hurt like hell. I haven't been able to figure out why I developed this but I know my mother and 1 of my aunts have it. I have read online about this stuff called Emuaid. I haven't been able to afford it cause it's 52.00 a bottle but for a home remedy I always just sleep with hot compresses under my arm or breast where ever it seems to come up and it's very very painful it is worse than childbirth. I wish someone could tell me some home remedies for HS if any is known of. But if you suffer from continuos boils,abscesses and blackheads you more than likely have HS. Look it up. I had to diagnose myself after 17 years of boils and blackheads and severe pain. Hope this helps....
I have HS as well. Was diagnosed many years ago. Mine is a secondary symptom of my Crohn's Disease. It is pretty much the most painful thing I have ever experienced, as it grows and lingers and takes up residence in your underarms, etc., and doesn't leave until its consumed your brain 24/7 with the pain associated with it. Sucks the life out of you, and then it's gone. I have one size of an extra large egg, under my right arm now. A month ago, had two next to each other, just as big (if not bigger) under my left arm. I do heat compresses too. It helps, along with pain med. I have been wondering....there has got to be something we can do/take to prevent these damn things!!!!??!!! If you need someone to talk to, post a comment and maybe we can exchange email addresses?? I am one strong chick, but this is really wearing me down!
