How can I treat cysts on underarms inner thighs and genitals? (photo)

There are biologic, immune
modulating, and surgical treatments for Hidradenitis. In my office, we
begin by controlling the onset of HS and the longterm scarring is
mitigated. Treatments for hidradenitis scarring are many including
topical treatment protocols and laser therapy.

Looks Iike you have hidradenitis suppurativa. It is a very difficult condition to treat. Recently, Humira has been FDA-approved for the treatment of this condition. I recommend to follow with a board certified dermatologist to discuss your treatment options and to see if you are a good candidate for treatment with Humira. All the best!

Hi,
Thanks for sharing your photos and experience. Based on the photos I highly recommend you see a board certified dermatologist for treatment of a condition called hidradenitis suppurative. This is not a condition diagnosed only on photos, but your photos are highly suggestive of this diagnosis. There are many treatments for this condition and you can speak with your dermatologist about what treatment is best for you. I hope this is helpful and wish you all the best.
