Hello
Thanks for the query.
Hidradenitis is an autoimmune disorder.
It can only be controlled.
Capsule acitretin works very well.
I have seen excellent response in many patients.
You can try this.
Antibiotics are only required to take care of infection which might be associated with this.
Let me know if you have any other doubts.
Thank you.
