Some say it's a form of acne

I am an African American Female that has a problem with hidradenitis suppurativa. I want to know what you think about Kenslog injections?  I am at my worst and I am so tired of them.
I had many different types of antibiotics.

Hi. Kenalog (steroid) injections reduce inflammation and are one option for this condition. Other treatments are:
Aloe Vera Drinking Gel to boost immune system
Aloe Vera Lotion to soothe rashes
Anti-androgen therapy
Zinc gluconate taken orally to induce remission.
This condition is quite rare and has not been well studied. Please repost this in the dermatology forum as I'm not an expert on this.
Eloise.
