Welcome to the Feel Better Feel Great Podcast! I'm Dr. Andrea McSwain, and if you're just discovering this show, I'm thrilled to have you join us. As a dedicated DO, I've always been driven by the pursuit of understanding the root cause of issues. With a background in conventional OBGYN training and a deep connection to five generations of classical Osteopathic tradition, coupled with my upbringing in a holistic environment, I bring a unique expertise to the table. Whether you're currently struggling with health concerns or simply aiming to enhance your well-being, this podcast is here to equip you with practical tools for feeling your best. I am an expert, but you are an expert in you! Let's embark on a journey to not just feeling good, but to feeling great! In this episode, we dive into the complexities of hidradenitis suppurativa (HS), a painful and often misunderstood skin condition that causes debilitating abscesses and cysts in areas where skin rubs together. We explore how HS impacts patients' quality of life, often leading to misdiagnosis and stigmatization due to its severe symptoms and chronic nature. The episode also highlights the various conventional and holistic treatment options available, emphasizing the importance of addressing both the physical and emotional toll of the condition. Through compelling patient stories and expert insights, we aim to shed light on this challenging medical issue and advocate for better awareness and care.    Join our Facebook community: https://www.facebook.com/groups/146473462706996  Want more tools to feel GREAT?
