What is Hidradenitis Suppurativa (Acne Inversa)?

Hidradenitis suppurativa, also called acne inversa, is a chronic inflammatory skin condition that causes painful lumps under your skin in the sweat glands in the underarm, breast area or groin. It is characterised by persistent or recurrent boil-like nodules and abscesses that culminate in a purulent discharge, sinuses, and scarring.


The bumps can get infected. When that happens, pockets form under your skin and fill with pus. They can smell bad when they break open. They can also leave scars.


Study Visits

The study dates are still being finalised. The appointment will take approximately 2.5 hours.
