S6 E1 Clinical Cases in Hidradenitis Suppurativa

In honour of HS Awareness Week, we had consultant dermatologist and lead consultant of the Skin Health Institute HS Clinic, Dr Diana Norris join us on the Spot Diagnosis Podcast to delve into the complex condition that is hidradenitis suppurativa (HS). HS can be challenging to diagnose and manage, and it is pivotal to address both the physical and psychological aspects of the condition to optimise patient care. In this episode, we clarify misconceptions and discuss clinical cases to provide valuable insights into the various HS presentations and treatment approaches, helping to improve understanding and outcomes for individuals affected by HS. https://skinhealthinstitute.org.au/spot-diagnosis/clinical-cases-in-hidradenitis-suppurativa/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
