Default Painful boils - Hidradenitis Supurativa

I think I may have found something that helps with these!

I have been following some of the ideas off of the HS Yahoo groups for cleaning them.

I have been using hot compresses with baking soda. and it seems to help.

But the MAJOR thing I came across was the new Monistat medicated powder. I was not even using it for these. I was using it, along with the monistat anti-chafe cream and I really liked the way the powder felt, so I started putting it on my underarms as well as my thighs. It felt everything smooth feeling and my skin wasn't as sticky with the heat. Well, now a week later and all of the boils seem to be drying up. I still have them, but they are much smaller and nowhere near as painful.

Hope this helps and also let me know if you have come across anything else that helps!

THANKS!!! That is WONDERFUL news!

Is that the same Monistat brand as for yeast infections and is the powder found in the same area?

I found it in the same area as you would find condoms and such at Target. I have never used their Yeast stuff, but I would assume it is right by it. I am so happy with it! The anti - chafe cream is great also!
