Hidradenitis suppurativa is a disorder of the sweat glands and hair follicles. Bacteria, along with clogged follicles and ducts, causes large painful abscesses which break through the skin. These abscesses heal slowly and leave tight, fibrous scar tissue. This scarring may lead to reduced mobility in the affected area. Hidradenitis suppurativa may spread beyond the sweat gland areas into the skin and muscles and may lead to serious skin infections such as cellulitis. Treatment options for hidradenitis supparativa may include draining the abscess, applying hot compresses, cortisone injections, topical ointments, and antibiotics. The most severe cases of hidradenitis suppurativa may require surgical removal of the infected area. 

Can you win social security disability or SSI disability benefits on the basis of Hidradenitis suppurativa?

Answer: The Social Security Administration's disability evaluation system does not focus on a claimant's diagnosis, but, rather, on the functional limitations a claimant has. In other words, the name of the condition is not the chief consideration. How the condition "affects and limits: the indiviual is the primary concern. So, yes, disability benefits can be won on the basis of nearly any condition provided that the condition is sufficiently limiting.
