Carbuncle & Hidradenitis Suppurativa is a chronic skin disease characterized by clusters of abscesses or subcutaneous boil-like infections, commonly affecting apocrine sweat gland areas like the armpits, under breasts, inner thighs, groin and buttocks. The infections are usually caused by bacteria like Staphylococcus aureus and Streptococcus pyogenes, resulting in an abscess larger than a boil that drains pus through one or more openings in the infected, fluid and dead tissue-filled mass. The main treatment is surgery to fully excise all abscess areas and membranes.
