A pilonidal sinus is a small hole or tunnel in the skin, typically located near the tailbone at the top of the buttocks. It often contains hair and skin debris and can become infected, forming a painful abscess with pus discharge and swelling. It is more common in people who sit for prolonged periods or have excessive body hair.
Our treatment approach for pilonidal sinus is focused on relieving discomfort, eliminating infection, and preventing recurrence through a combination of conservative management, drainage, or surgical procedures depending on the stage and severity.
Our experienced medical team ensures safe, hygienic, and patient-focused care with an emphasis on fast healing and minimal disruption to your daily life.
Treatments aim to quickly reduce swelling, drainage, and pain, providing fast relief.
We use sterile techniques and proper wound care protocols to promote infection-free healing.
When possible, we use minimally invasive techniques like pit picking or laser ablation for quicker recovery.
By removing all sinus tracts and advising preventive care, we significantly lower the chances of it coming back.
Many procedures can be done without hospital admission, saving time and cost.
Most patients resume normal life within a few days to a week after treatment.
It usually results from ingrown hair, friction, or prolonged sitting. Infection can turn it into a painful abscess.
Pain near the tailbone, swelling, pus or bloody discharge, and tenderness are common signs.
No, it usually needs medical intervention. Infected sinuses may require drainage or removal.
Treatment ranges from cleaning and antibiotics to minor surgery, depending on the infection and sinus complexity.
Keeping the area clean, avoiding prolonged sitting, maintaining hygiene, and hair removal can help prevent recurrence.
Since the procedure is precise and minimally invasive, the chances of infection are significantly lower.
