Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a persistent, recurring skin inflammatory condition linked to various comorbidities. Management involves antibiotics, hormone therapy, immune-modulating drugs, surgery, and treatment of comorbidities. The objectives of the study were to assess the comorbidities, clinical presentation subtypes, and applied treatment of patients with HS. Methods: Patients with HS who visited the Centre of Dermatovenereology at Vilnius University Hospital Santaros Klinikos in Lithuania underwent evaluation based on the guidelines of the European Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation Registry questionnaire. Results: The study included 49 patients, and 61.22% (n = 30) had comorbidities. A strong positive correlation was found between a family history of inflammatory diseases (69.38% (n = 34)) and the severity of HS according to Hurley stage (r = 0.71 p < 0.05). A statistically significant correlation (r = 0.944, p = 0.02) was found between metabolic comorbidities and Hurley stage. Patients on biologic treatment had a mean IHS4 of 7.38 at the beginning of treatment and 3.22 at follow-up (p < 0.05). For patients not on biologics, the initial IHS4 score was 6.21 and 5.42 at follow-up (p > 0.05). Conclusions: A family history of inflammatory diseases and metabolic comorbidities showed a strong correlation with HS severity. Treatment with biologics showed significant improvement in HS scores compared to systemic antibiotics.

Background: Hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) diagnosis often faces a global delay of 7.2 years due to factors like lack of recognition, stigma, and socioeconomic barriers. Limited effective therapies and frequent exacerbations impact patients’ quality of life, posing a significant burden on healthcare systems. Methods: HS patients were assessed according to European Hidradenitis Suppurativa Foundation (EHSF) Registry questionnaire guidelines at various stages of the disease and treatment. Results: The study included 49 patients; 57.14% (n = 28) of them were male. The average age of the subjects was 39.91 ± 13.665 years; the average BMI was 27.84 ± 7.362. A total of 59.18% (n = 29) were active or previous smokers. There were statistically more male smokers than female (p < 0.01). Average disease onset was 25.71 ± 13.743 years; the mean time to diagnosis was 5.2 ± 7.607 years. A total of 70.2% (n = 33) were previously misdiagnosed. Subjects had 6.17 ± 6.98 painful days over the preceding 4 weeks. The average intensity of pain according to the visual analogue scale (VAS) was 5.60 ± 3.36 points. The mean dermatology life quality index (DLQI) at baseline was 8.9 ± 7.436. Conclusions: The research revealed delayed diagnoses, especially for females. Smoking was linked to higher Hurley stages, with a prevalence among male smokers, and HS had a substantial impact on patients’ quality of life.
