The common symptoms of Hidradenitis suppurativa are multiple abscesses in the armpits and groin areas due to infection and inflammation of apocrine sweat glands.
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a Kapha-Pitta disorder in Ayurveda. The vitiated digestive fire-Agni (Pitta ) causes impaired metabolism and results in the vitiation of Kapha Dosha. The impaired fat molecules are deposited in the muscle mass and cause swollen painful lesions in the axillae, groin, anal, and breast regions. As per Ayurveda, the diseases are due to the incompetence of channels or block to the channels. In HS, the impaired fat molecules are deposited in the fatty locations of the body and block the channels of the body. When we look into the pathology of HS, the disease occurs due to the obstruction of hair follicles, infection to apocrine sweat glands, and secondary infections which can be correlated to the channel block theory of Ayurveda.

As per the concepts of Allopathic medicine, bacteria and bodily oils in the armpit and groin cause the infection. Another reason is the wrong way of shaving hair. But Ayurveda believes this is caused due to internal issues and that’s why some people are getting affected.
Bacteria are known to cause skin and soft tissue infections were uncovered in microbiological studies of the skin disease hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), with nearly 60% of cultures dominated by Staphylococcus lugdunensis, according to a study published online November 13 in Emerging Infectious Diseases. In people with impaired digestive fire, the immunity is weak and facilitates the growth of bacteria in the body. So the internal impaired metabolism is the real factor and others like bacteria are the triggering factors.
Is HS considered an autoimmune disease?
The cause of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is still unknown. Even though the abscesses can become infected, it is not caused by bacteria and is not contagious. It is thought to be caused by an abnormal response of the body’s own immune system. In other words, HS is an autoimmune disease.
This statement itself proves the clarity of the Ayurvedic concept and as per the pathologic explanations and the treatment concepts of Ayurveda, I have lot many experiences in managing HS with Ayurveda.
HS is not contagious and again proves the concept of Ayurveda. Because bacteria causing the infection and inflammation are not working in all. So some other internal factors and environment which suits the growth of triggering factor are the real reason for HS. So we have to address the same with a clear scientific view.
The management of HS.
Dermatologists offer the following tips to their patients who have HS:
Lose weight to lessen HS — or even clear your skin.
Quit smoking to reduce HS flare-ups.
Stop shaving where you have breakouts.
Wear loose-fitting clothes to reduce friction.
Keep your skin cool.
Ayurvedic management of HS
As said, we have to address the real reason for Kapha-Pitta vitiation. The common reasons can be traced by detailed case taking and lifestyle, food habits, heredity, diabetes, obesity, other chemical medicines, etc are commonly listed. The patients are asked to modify them and medicines are prescribed to repair the metabolism.
These are the standard supplements prescribed to manage HS. In most cases, 90 days of outpatient management is initially suggested. Based on the progress of the disease, the next set of treatments is proposed.

Hello,
I am a patient of Hidradenitis suppurativa.
The diseased tissue from the right axilla has been surgically removed. But I am having the same problem in the left axilla and the groin area.
Is there a 100% cure for this disease in Ayurveda and can I come for a personal consultation?
Looking forward to your prompt reply.
Thanks,
Jitender
