Disordered Eating in Hidradenitis Suppurativa
This study suggests that disordered eating may be part of the wider spectrum of psychological burden in patients with HS, highlighting the potential value of multidisciplinary care and clinical awareness to mitigate its adverse impact on treatment outcomes and quality of life. Future research is necessary to elucidate the nature and prevalence of disordered eating in people with HS compared with those with comparable demographic risk factors and in the general population.
