Hidradenitis suppurativa

[crohnsconfused]

Does anyone else have Hidradenitis suppurativa and Crohn's? I have hidradenitis on both sides of my groin for about 6 years now. Then just recently was diagnosed with Crohn's . Does anyone experience the two, and what do you do for treatment? Should surgery for HS be an option?

My friend has Hidradenitis Suppurativa.

You probably want to go on a Biologic like Remicade or Humira. My friend with HS had all her sinus tracts/fistulas from it close almost immediately after starting Remicade, and these medications are also very effective for Crohn's, too.
