But I wanted to find causes rather than treatments. One cause that struck home with me was what I ate. It appears carbs, through bread, potatoes and some other vegetables can cause insulin spikes which tends to lead to insulin resistance. It's the resistance that causes inflammation in our body and has been linked to hs flareups. My plan is to quit unnecessary carbs, maybe all carbs temporarily, and lean toward a Mediterranean diet. These dietary changes are new to me and I hope they work for me. I love bread.

Does anyone have any tips for making sure that it does not come back?

About me: I have the nickel size boils under one of my arms which does nothing but drain for the past year. I have multiple ones at my panty line which go from really intense stinging to intense itching depending on the day. I am vey excited to try the turmeric salve (turmeric, coconut oil, evoo, black pepper and tea-tree oil) at night and more dosages of the turmeric (at least 4x a day). I'll report back in about a month to let you all know the results!

I came across this site and tried the tumeric treatment the very next day. I mixed turmeric with water to form a paste and used it topically before bed. I also drank a half teaspoon of tumeric in warm water as others on the site suggested.
It has been just under 2 weeks that I've been doing the tumeric treatments and I now have no bumps left. I have no plans of going back to the dermatologist because tumeric is super effective for me. Thank you very much for sharing and helping out others who suffered with HS. You guys are the real MVP's!
