Abstract: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a refractory and recurrent chronic inflammatory skin disease characterized by nodules, abscesses, sinus tracts, and scarring. The etiology of HS remains unclear, rendering its treatment particularly challenging. Current therapeutic approaches encompass lifestyle modifications, topical medications, conventional systemic drugs, biologic agents, surgical interventions, and traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). A personalized treatment strategy tailored to individual patient characteristics is essential to achieve optimal clinical outcomes.
