Résumé
Sexuality is an unmet need in patients with HS. The presence of profound impairment to sexual function and high levels of distress in relation to various clinical-epidemiological features is frequent. The disease limits personal relationships, both in patients with a partner and in single patients. Patients often feel the need to share their sexual problems with healthcare professionals. Dermatologists are the key staff to address this problem, as they are the main specialists in the care of these patients.
