How DPC Can Help Manage Your Hidradenitis Suppurativa

Updated on: April 05, 2024

As a chronic skin condition, hereditary hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) causes small, painful lumps to form under the skin. It can affect the armpits, groin, buttocks, and breasts. It can recur, heal slowly, and leave tunnels and scarring. It may also affect your emotional well-being and daily life.

  • Preventative. DPC physicians can help you prevent or reduce the recurrence of your HS lesions. You can improve your HS by following certain lifestyle changes, such as weight loss, quitting smoking, managing stress, and maintaining good hygiene. Aside from providing you with antiseptics, moisturizers, and wound dressings that protect your skin and prevent infection, they can also monitor your HS regularly and adjust your treatment plan as needed.

  • DPC physicians can offer you emotional and psychological support in relation to your HS. They can listen to your concerns and frustrations, and they can offer you empathy and encouragement. Additionally, they can provide you with resources and support groups that can help you cope with your HS, such as low self-esteem, depression, anxiety, or isolation.

As you can see, DPC can offer you a better way to manage your HS. You will have more time, access, and personalized care, as well as a better quality of life when you choose DPC.

DPC is a model of medicine that shows love and respect for both patients and physicians, and can help you achieve optimal health and wellbeing.

Hippocrates, the father of medicine, said:

“Wherever the art of medicine is loved, there is also a love of humanity.”
