Treatment

Diagnosis

One can find the nearest and best doctor in Bangalore for Pilonidal sinus treatment. During the diagnosis, a doctor will ask you a few questions regarding the symptoms, whether you have pain or experiencing discharge, the size of the sinus, and whether it’s a recurring problem or your first sinus. After evaluating all the parameters, the doctor will ask you to undergo an MRI scan to understand what sort of sinus it is, where it’s leading to, and whether it is a Pilonidal sinus or a pilonidal cyst. Once your doctor has concluded the disease, he will subject you to the best treatment options suitable for you.

Surgery

The treatment of pilonidal sinus at Pristyn Care is done with the help of laser technology. The surgery is most commonly performed under local anesthesia. The surgeon will use the laser fiber to open the lesion and remove all the dust, skin debris, and pus from the cyst. Once the cyst is cleaned, the doctor will ablate the sinus while removing the fiber, and the wound will be closed without any stitches.

The surgery is completely painless and scarless. You won’t feel any discomfort even after the surgery and resume all activities from the next day. The doctor will apply a dressing over the wound if necessary and instruct you how to do that yourself.

Pilonidal sinus is a prevalent condition in most cities of India, including Bangalore, due to the sedentary lifestyle that is usually followed by people. It often arises in people who live inactive lives and don’t pay much attention to hygiene. In India, around 61% of pilonidal sinus cases are found in people in the age group between 16-25 years, and the primary reason is poor hygiene and sedentary habits.

If you reside in Bangalore and have been diagnosed with pilonidal sinus, you can contact Pristyn Care to get advanced treatment for the disease and undergo surgery if need be.

Don’t Let Pilonidal Sinus Progress Into A More Problematic Condition- Seek Medical Care Promptly

Usually, pilonidal sinus is not considered a serious issue, whereas it can be very problematic if left untreated. Over time, the cyst will get infected and inflamed, due to which the sinus tract will become deeper, increasing the chances of complications like anal fistula.

In the worst-case scenario, a pilonidal sinus can also lead to a certain type of skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma. Though the possibility of a pilonidal sinus turning cancerous is rare, you should never take any risk. The only plausible treatment method for a pilonidal sinus is the surgical removal of the cyst.

At Pristyn Care, we provide advanced treatment for pilonidal sinus with the help of laser technology. It is a minimally invasive surgery that effectively drains out infectious material from the sinus and removes the cyst wall as well to prevent the recurrence of the disease.

Tips for Faster Recovery After Having Pilonidal Sinus Surgery

Our doctors make sure that patients receive proper medical care throughout their treatment journey. Therefore, they also compile a recovery plan for the patients that involves detailed instructions regarding diet and activities. We are mentioning some tips here that will help to make recovery quick and smooth.

  • Follow a healthy and balanced diet composed of fresh fruits and vegetables to make sure that your body gets the essential nutrients for rapid healing.
  • Clean the surgical wound care and keep the area dry to prevent post-surgery infection.
  • Take the prescribed medicines as directed by the doctor and consult them if you take other medicines on a regular basis.
  • Use lukewarm water instead of hot water for bath and to clean the wound.
  • Abstain from sexual intercourse until the wound heals completely to avoid pain and discomfort.
  • Avoid strenuous physical activities as they can aggravate the pain in the surgical site.
  • A little bleeding is considered normal after the surgery. However, if you experience excessive bleeding, get in touch with a doctor immediately.

Prevent Pilonidal Sinus From Recurring with Simple Habit Changes

After pilonidal sinus is treated successfully, the doctor will advise you to make certain lifestyle changes to prevent the condition from returning. These tips include:

  • Maintain proper hygiene and clean the area with mild soap and dry it properly.
  • Don’t put excessive pressure on the buttocks as it can push more hairs into the skin tissues and increase the risk of another pilonidal cyst.
  • Avoid sitting for prolonged hours as it will allow skin debris and other particles to fester in the same region.
  • Wear loose clothes to minimize friction against the skin.
  • Take sitz baths if you have developed a cyst. It will help to remove the infection from the cyst and promote healing, thereby preventing the cyst from progressing.

Different surgical treatments for pilonidal sinus

Here are the different surgical treatments for pilonidal sinus treatment:

  • Laser pilonidal sinus treatment – Laser surgery for pilonidal sinus is the most effective treatment for pilonidal sinus. During the procedure, the proctologist uses a high-intensity laser beam to close off the sinus tract. The doctor removes the entire pit of the pilonidal sinus so that the infection does not recur. It is an easier and higher precision procedure to perform as compared to the earlier mentioned types of open surgery. The treatment procedure requires only one day of dressing as there are no wounds left behind to heal. The laser energy also promotes the faster healing of the site of the surgery. Thus, it takes a very short time to recover from laser surgery for the pilonidal sinus completely.
  • Incision and drainage – Incision and drainage is an open surgical procedure recommended mostly when the cyst becomes infected. It is performed with local anesthesia to make the affected area numb. The surgeon makes an incision in the cyst to drain the infectious fluid and pus. The doctor packs the hole with gauze and leaves it open to heal. It can take up to 4-6 weeks to heal the cyst completely.
  • Pilonidal cystectomy – Pilonidal cystectomy is the surgical removal of the entire pilonidal cyst. The treatment is performed after administering general/regional anesthesia. The surgeon makes a cut to remove the affected skin along with underlying hair follicles, tissues, and dead cells. If required, the doctor packs the area with surgical gauze. In cases where the infection is severe, the doctor places a tube to drain the fluid from the cyst. The tube is removed when the entire fluid is drained from the cyst.

Are there any risks and complications involved during pilonidal sinus surgery?

If performed under the guidance and supervision of a trained proctologist, surgical treatment for pilonidal sinus will not cause any risks or complications. But, like any other surgery, there might be some complications, although not severe. Some of them are:

  • Trauma and bleeding to the site – If the surgery is not performed efficiently, there can be a chance of the anal tissues getting injured. Trauma and injury to the anal tissues can even lead to bleeding. If the surgery is performed by an experienced surgeon, the chances of any injury can be cut down drastically.
  • Infection – Like any other surgery, infection is a common side effect/ complication in the case of pilonidal sinus surgery too. Infection can lead to nausea and vomiting in the person. Infection, however, is not a very serious problem and can be treated with medicines. The chances of infection in case of open surgery are much higher than in laser surgery.
  • Squamous cell carcinoma – A type of skin cancer that occurs due to uncontrolled growth of the squamous cells. The condition is not very common but not unheard of. To prevent such complications, it is extremely important that the surgery is performed by an experienced and trained surgeon.
