Pilonidal sinus

2024-04-26 13:59:13
I have what seems to be a case of pilonidal sinus. There was no pain initially but recently I started to experience some pain while lying down on my back. Is there any other option of treatment except surgery?

Consult with a general surgeon in your area for clinical examination and confirm if it's pilonidal sinus and treatment accordingly.
