Can i get over a Pilonidal cyst without surgery ?
Nov 5, 2013

Dr. Thierry Yazbek Surgery
A pilonidal cyst occurs at the bottom of the tailbone (coccyx) and can become infected and filled with pus.

Pilonidal Cyst Causes:
1- ingrown hairs cause pilonidal cysts.
2- trauma to that region of the body.

Treatment of pilonidal cyst:
Early in an infection of a pilonidal cyst, the redness, swelling, and pain may be minimal. Sitting in a warm tub may decrease the pain and may decrease the chance that the cyst will develop to the point of requiring incision and drainage.
Antibiotics do not heal a pilonidal cyst.
The preferred treatment is surgical treatment.
