What is Pilonidal Sinus?

Pilonidal Sinus is a small tunnel or cavity that develops in the skin, usually near the tailbone (coccyx) at the top of the buttocks. It often contains hair, dirt, and debris. The condition may become infected, resulting in pain, swelling, redness, and pus discharge. Pilonidal sinus is more common in young adults, especially those who sit for long hours or have excessive body hair.

What Are The Causes Of Pilonidal Sinus?

Several factors can contribute to the development of pilonidal sinus, including:

Ingrown hairs penetrating the skin
Excessive body hair
Prolonged sitting
Poor hygiene
Obesity
Excessive sweating
Repeated friction or pressure in the tailbone area
Family history of pilonidal disease

What are the Symptoms & Signs of Pilonidal Sinus?

Pain or tenderness near the tailbone
Swelling and redness in the affected area
Pus or blood discharge from the sinus opening
Foul-smelling drainage
Formation of one or more pits or openings in the skin
Difficulty sitting comfortably
Fever in case of severe infection

How Is The Condition Diagnosed?

Pilonidal sinus is usually diagnosed through a physical examination. The doctor examines the area near the tailbone for sinus openings, swelling, infection, or abscess formation. In complicated or recurrent cases, imaging tests may be advised to determine the extent of the sinus tract.

At Goyal Piles Laser Centre, advanced diagnostic methods are used to accurately evaluate pilonidal sinus and plan the most effective treatment.
