Abstract

To the Editor: As of January 2021, TikTok is an application with about 689 million monthly users, where users can upload videos ranging from 2 seconds to 1 minute.1 However, TikTok recently announced that users could upload videos for up to 3 minutes. This enables TikTok to be used as a video-based educational modality, similar to YouTube, to improve literacy for diseases with a delayed diagnosis, such as hidradenitis suppurativa (HS).2 Although TikTok was primarily created for entertainment, it is important to analyze HS information quality if viewers use it for education.
