HS Awareness Week 2023

Monday, June 5, 202312:00 am EDTSunday, June 11, 202310:59 pm EDT

Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) Awareness Week is an annual event with a growing attendance every year. HS Awareness week takes place the first full week of June, which this year falls on June 5th-11th, 2023.

Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) is a chronic, non-communicable, debilitating inflammatory skin disease, characterized by painful skin lesions, for which there is no known cure. As many as 4% of men, woman and children across Canada are living with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) but may not have a diagnosis due to lack of both patient and physician awareness. However just because there is no cure does not mean there is no hope.
