    AbstractHidradenitis suppurativa (HS) is a chronic and recurrent inflammatory skin condition resulting in the formation of nodules, sinus tracts, and abscesses in intertriginous areas. We provide recommendations for the management of children presenting to the emergency department with acute HS flares, based on a review of literature and insights from our own clinical experience. The purpose of the recommendations is to educate clinicians on specific considerations that should be made when caring for children with HS.Copyright © 2021 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc.
