WOMAN DOCUMENTS HER BELLY BUTTON CLEANING
WITH VID
BY LOGAN ROSS
A woman has shared an unfiltered look at her daily medical care routine including cleaning her belly button as part of her effort to raise awareness about chronic illness.
Destinee Spruell from Florida, USA, documents her journey with hidradenitis suppurativa and PASH syndrome.
In her videos, she openly shares the challenges of managing her condition while educating others about what daily treatment involves.
Hidradenitis suppurativa is a chronic skin condition that causes painful lumps and abscesses to form under the skin, often in areas like the armpits or groin.
PASH syndrome is a rare inflammatory disorder that combines several skin conditions, including hidradenitis, and leads to recurring infections and inflammation.
She said “These videos document my personal journey with chronic illness, specifically highlighting the realities of hidradenitis suppurativa and PASH syndrome.”
“One aspect of my daily care involves cleaning and treating abscesses and drainage in my belly button area.”
“The content is raw, educational, and humanizing — offering an inside look at the challenges of living with these conditions, while also breaking stigma around body care and medical routines.”
“Audiences often respond strongly to these clips because they balance vulnerability with empowerment, showing both the struggle and resilience involved in chronic illness management.”
