▲ 3 r/pilonidalcyst
Hi! My first ever cyst developed a little over a week ago on my lower back, the pain got so bad my mother immediately took me to the first specialist available and had it drained yesterday night. The doctor explained the two available surgeries for this type of cyst and I genuinely don’t know what to do. I truly don’t want a gaping hole and wait a year for it to heal, but I also don’t want to go through the less invasive surgery only for it to not even guarantee to get rid of all the ingrown hair down there… but I’m so tired of all of this pain I just want to find a solution to alleviate it as much as I can.
