I never thought it possible, to have so much relief from my HS, without surgery and even then with surgery, I was skeptical. But here I am ready for summer for the first time in years! Years of not wanting to go do fun things with my kids because I would get to hot in longer sleeved items and the heat would make me have a flare up and I was constantly have open HS sores they never fully closed at the point I am or was at. But I can actually wear my tank tops again! Something I thought would never be possible again in my life! My armpits are scarred but I can lift my arms up all the way again without the skin being taunt and hurting with no gross flare ups oozing. Know I can worry about my armpit area having wet marks from sweat and not because of something much worse and gross and so painful that I could barely lift my arm up half way to shoulder height or you know straight out on both sides like when being measured. Thank you so much My Magic Healer you have no idea how thankful I am, words fall short in how much you have helped me. If you are considering buying this product do it, don't overthink it, seriously you will be so amazed at how much the universal flare care will help you if you have HS, I will never stop praising this company and this ointment! My dad who has suffered much longer and more severe than I have, he has seen his HS clearing up within the first week too. I honestly can tell you that you will regret not buying this for your HS flares. I have not had one single flare up since the first day I applied the universal flare ointment, which I just had a new flare up start when I started using the ointment, it essentially was a flare up reopening. I normally get flare-ups 3 or more times per month in either armpit or legs and groin areas and then it takes months to fully stop oozing and to close up or close up as much as stage 3 HS can "close up." Do it!!!! Buy it!!!! You are going to be amazed at the pain relief within seconds and then you will continue to be amazed when you stop having flares and are able to do all the things you could before HS took over your life, stop letting HS take control of your life with the universal flare care ointment. HS doesn't control my life anymore :) <3 Thank you My Magic Healer you truly are magical <3
