Abstract
Mr. Twain is a 46 year-old man with hidradenitis suppurativa that has not been active for the last year. At his last follow-up 3 months ago, he reported groin pain in spite of a benign physical exam. Today his chief concern is again pain: “Doctor, I have been aching in my armpits a lot recently. I haven’t seen any boils and bumps in these areas, but I keep feeling the pain. It’s worse at night when I try to go to sleep.”
