Summary

This trial aims to see if mindfulness training can improve quality of life for those with HS, a skin condition causing inflammation and pain.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS) who are registered at the University of Miami Hospital dermatology system. Participants must speak English and be able to consent. It's not for those under 18, pregnant women, prisoners, individuals with active drug addictions, psychosis or suicidal thoughts, or untreated PTSD.
What is being tested?
The study is testing whether a mindfulness training course can improve the quality of life in HS patients compared to an educational course about HS. Patients will learn techniques aimed at reducing stress and improving mental well-being.
What are the potential side effects?
Mindfulness training generally does not have direct physical side effects but may bring up emotional discomfort as participants become more aware of their thoughts and feelings.
