I don't know how you trim your own hair from the pilonidal sinus. In fact you can't see the pilonidal sinus. Please consult with a General Surgeon for a physical examination and proper diagnosis of your problem.

Yes.Pilonidal disease affects the buttock crease area. Hair often grows in the cleft (crease) between the buttocks. These hairs can traumatize and penetrate the skin at the top of the buttock crease. Hairs can get caught under the skin in this area. This can result in irritation, infection, and formation of an abscess.
