Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic inflammatory skin and systemic disease that is associated with considerable discomfort and a significant reduction in the quality of life. Despite a significantly increased understanding of the disease, the diagnosis is still delayed for many years. Delayed patient access to suitable treatment often leads to disease progression with increased surgical interventions and the occurrence of possible comorbidities. In recent years, there has been an improved understanding of the pathophysiology and, as a result the authorization of modern therapeutic agents for HS. The treatment of HS is based on three treatment pillars: surgery, antibiotics and biologics. Additionally, risk factors, such as smoking and obesity should be positively influenced. Knowledge of comorbidities and their interdisciplinary treatment is important for the individualized care of patients.
