Pilonidal disease

Question

Pilonidal disease

Asked for Male, 26 Years

Can there by abscess or something below the cleft skin without any visible symptoms on superficial level? When I squeeze my buttocks the area feels painful. It's not the tailbone, its coming from the muscle/tissue on top of that for sure. I have pressed tailbone and sacrum, no pain or tenderness. When i pull my skin towards left, so that that pain area is pulled away frim the bone and then squeeze my buttocks, then no pain happens. Can pilonidal disease happen without those cyst and pits?
