Hidradenitis suppurativa
I had a hard unmoveable clot like thing beneath the skin of my groin for few months. After which suddenly it has got very much swelled amd painful even to move. After using hot compress for several days and pain killers it drained a lil bit of pus, but still looks almost the same.
Is it HS? Because i have rashes, pimples kind of things in other body and have been told a infectious sweat gland already by a dermatologist.
