Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic inflammatory condition that presents as recurrent, painful lumps and boils on hair-bearing areas (like underarms or groin). It is aggravated by bacterial colonization of the skin. Pyrithione zinc-based shampoos, like Head & Shoulders, can be used on the affected skin to help reduce inflammation and bacteria, which helps to get rid of boils and can prevent them from coming back. This is a cheaper treatment option than Hibiclens, which can also help hidradenit
