Clinically mild hidradenitis suppurativa: mild for whom?
Severe levels of illness, measured through patient-reported outcomes, are frequent among patients with hidradenitis suppurativa classified as having mild disease according to the International Hidradenitis Suppurativa Score System. The systematic use in clinical practice of patient-centred outcome measures, capable of accurately detecting and portraying the true severity of the impact of skin conditions, may help improve patient care.
