Proctologists primarily diagnose a pilonidal sinus with a physical examination alone. During the exam, the doctor will check the tailbone and the buttocks for signs of pilonidal sinus, which may present as a pimple or an oozing sinus. To understand the full extent of your condition, they may ask questions like:
Although rare, the surgeon may order tests like MRI and CT scans to confirm if any sinus cavities have developed under the skin.
Pilonidal Sinuses require surgical intervention as they do not heal on their own in most cases. During the procedure, the proctologist uses a high-intensity laser to ablate the entire sinus tract so that the condition doesn’t recur. Laser pilonidal sinus surgery imparts a higher level of precision and promotes higher healing rates.
While there is no special preparation required for the surgery, do keep in mind the following:

Sometimes pilonidal sinus goes away on its own, but there are high recurrence rates.
Most people need surgery to treat a pilonidal sinus completely. However, you can use medications and home remedies to manage symptoms.
You must seek immediate medical attention if you experience increased pain while sitting and notice a small dimple or large swollen sinus-like formation at the tailbone or between the buttocks. The sinus may also be oozing fluid with a foul smell.
Laser surgery is the best method for treating and excising a pilonidal sinus.
Sleeping on your front or side is the best way to sleep after the surgery, as this reduces the strain on your surgery wound. However, do not curl into a fetal position when sleeping on your side, as this would stretch your lower back.

Mr. Naman was a 33-year-old from New Delhi diagnosed with pilonidal sinus about a year ago. His doctors informed him that the sinus needed surgical removal for long-lasting relief. But Naman felt that surgery was an intimidating process and was scared to go for it.
To feel more comfortable with the process, he researched online and came across Pristyn Care, which advocated for laser pilonidal sinus surgery. Naman knew laser surgery resulted in minimal pain and blood loss. So, he contacted Pristyn Care and spoke with his medical care coordinator Dr. Shubham. After a lengthy discussion, Dr. Shubham suggested visiting Pristyn Care Clinic in Dwarka and consulting their in-house proctologist, Dr. Nikhil. Naman decided to get admitted the same day.
When he reached the hospital, all the paperwork and insurance were already taken care of by the Pristyn Care team, and he was relieved he didn’t have to run around. His laser pilonidal sinus surgery went smoothly, and he was discharged within 24 hours.
He was back on his feet within 2-3 days and could resume work. Within a month, he completely recovered from the surgery. He was pleased with his experience with Pristyn Care and extended his gratitude to Dr. Shubham and Dr. Nikhil.
Pilonidal sinus surgery cost generally ranges between Rs. 40,000 to Rs. 55,000.
