Abstract

Pain is the most burdensome symptom of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), accounting for greater impairment in HS-related quality of life (QoL) than even disease severity. Although it has received relatively less attention, pruritus is also common in HS and contributes to disability and poor health-related QoL among those living with HS. This chapter summarizes what is currently known about the epidemiology, clinical characteristics, and pathophysiology of HS-related pain and itch and synthesizes these data to suggest rational approaches to clinical management of these symptoms.
