Abstract
The etiology of hidradenitis suppurativa is not fully understood, complicating treatment strategies. Current pharmacological and surgical options are limited by patient acceptance, efficacy, safety, and cost. Integrative approaches aim to enhance standard care with safe and acceptable treatments, complementing rather than replacing therapies. This review highlights recent developments in integrative approaches including smoking cessation, dietary modifications, exercise, and psychosocial support for managing hidradenitis suppurativa effectively.
