Pilonidal sinus is a small tract whichdevelops under the skintypically above the buttock cleft which can become infected. It causes pain and discomfort. It contains hair and debris, leading to abscess formation and chronic inflammation. Medagg helps you get laser treatment for pilonidal sinus at the best hospitals
Hair and Friction – Accumulation of hair on the buttock cleft with friction and irritation can play a major role in causing pilonidal sinus.
Ingrown Hairs- ingrown hairs have the tenacity to penetrate the skin and cause a inflammatory response.
Obesity- overweight/ obesity can increase the risk due to increased skin folds and friction
Sedentary Lifestyle- sitting for extended periods in long work hours will contribute
Poor Hygiene- not being clean enough can lead to infection and formation of pilonidal sinus
Genetics – some people may have a genetic predisposition to developing pilonidal sinus
Tight Clothing – when individuals who tend to wear tight clothes which in turn puts pressure on the buttocks can contribute to the condition
Trauma- any pre-existing trauma or irritation to the tailbone area can lead to the development of a pilonidal sinus
Long-Distance Driving- extended periods of sitting during long drives can also contribute to pilonidal sinus
Minimally Invasive: It involves small incisions and less tissue disruption compared to traditional open surgery
Faster Healing:Laser treatment result in quicker recovery times and less post – operative discomfort
Reduced Pain: Laser treatmentcan lead to less pain drastically when compared to open surgery

Precision: laser treatment offers precise cutting and sealing of tissues, potentially reducing the chances of any complication

Surgery is typically required to remove the sinus, alleviate symptoms, and prevent recurrent infections.
Pain is expected after surgery, but it is usually manageable with pain medications. The level of pain can vary depending on the surgical technique used.
Recovery times vary but are generally quicker with minimally invasive techniques. Most patients can resume normal activities within a few weeks.
Complications can include infection, bleeding, recurrence, and wound healing issues. The risks depend on the type of surgery and individual factors.
Many pilonidal sinus surgeries are performed on an outpatient basis, meaning you may not need to stay in the hospital overnight. However, more complex cases might require hospitalization.
There is a risk of recurrence, but the likelihood depends on the type of surgery and the individual's healing process. Recurrence rates tend to be lower with advanced surgical techniques.
You will receive post-operative care instructions, which may include wound care, dietary guidelines, and follow-up appointments to monitor your healing progress.
Your ability to resume normal activities, including work, will depend on the type of surgery, your overall health, and the nature of your job. Your surgeon will provide guidance on this.
Your surgeon may recommend dietary modifications and lifestyle changes to support the healing process. It's important to follow their instructions for the best outcomes.
