Pilonidal cyst

2018-09-30 08:30:39
Hi, about 2 years ago I developed a pilonidal cyst and then had it drained at the doctors. It healed then came back, and has been slightly infected I think for quite a while. I’m incredibly anxious and the thought of going to the doctors to get it looked at again is absolutely terrifying, especially because it hurt so much the first time. I was wondering if they would give me some medication to relax me or laughing gas. I’m in NZ and am 18 yrs.
