Hidradenitis SuppuraDIVAS
Season 4 | Episode 3: Traveling With HS
In this episode, Cyd and Brindley dive into one of the most stressful — and empowering — parts of life with HS: traveling. ✈️
From long airport walks and white hotel sheets to packing wound care supplies and keeping your comfort routine on the go, the Divas share their real-life travel hacks, emotional truths, and lessons learned from hitting the road (and the skies) with Hidradenitis Suppurativa.
Learn how to:
- Navigate airports and hotels when you’re flaring
- Advocate for yourself — from asking for pre-boarding to requesting wheelchairs
- Pack smart with travel-size HS essentials
- Stay comfortable in new environments (yes, even with white sheets!)
- Balance excitement, stress, and self-care while you explore the world
This episode is a reminder that HS may change how we travel — but it should never stop us from living fully, making memories, and finding joy in the journey. 🌍💜
