Meet Our Top Doctors for Pilonidal Sinus Treatment in Pune

What is Pilonidal Sinus?

Pilonidal sinus is a small hole or channel under the skin and has pus or inflamed fluid accumulation, which may also contain blood. This happens in the cleft, at the lower back, or at the top of the buttocks. Pilonidal cyst or the sinus may also have hair or dirt accumulation, which may cause severe pain and foul-smelling pus or bloody discharge. People with regular sitting jobs are at a high risk of developing pilonidal sinus or cyst. It is more common in men, as compared to women. It happens when the hair at the top of the cleft (of the buttocks) gets pushed inside the body, causing dirt to push inside. The condition gets very painful at this stage. In a lot of cases, pilonidal sinus develops from an abscess.

Overview

Causes of Pilonidal Sinus
  • Ingrown hair penetrating the skin near the tailbone
  • Prolonged sitting causing pressure and friction in the cleft area
  • Excessive body hair and poor local hygiene
  • Repeated trauma or irritation to the sacrococcygeal region
  • Obesity increasing sweat and friction between the buttocks
Symptoms of Pilonidal Sinus
  • Pain or tenderness near the tailbone , especially while sitting
  • Swelling or a lump at the top of the buttock cleft
  • Redness and warmth around the affected area
  • Pus or blood discharge with foul smell
  • Fever in case of severe or infected pilonidal sinus
Home remedies for pilonidal sinus:
  • Take sitz baths
  • Take vitamin c and zinc supplements
  • Use essential oils to soothe the area
  • Apply castor oil to prevent inflammation in the area
  • Stay physically active to improve blood flow

Risks and Complications of Pilonidal Sinus Surgery

  • Trauma or bleeding may occur if the surgery is not performed properly.
  • Infection is a possible complication, especially in open surgical procedures.
