Summary

This study tests whether high-dose radiotherapy can provide lasting relief for people with moderate to severe hidradenitis suppurativa (HS) that hasn't responded to other treatments. Ten adults with HS in both armpits will receive radiation to one armpit while the other continues standard care. Researchers will compare changes in inflammatory bumps, pain, and quality of life over several weeks.
