What Is Pilonidal Sinus?
A pilonidal sinus develops as a small cyst or tract in the skin, usually at the upper cleft of the buttocks near the tailbone.
It occurs when hair, debris, or dead skin enters the skin fold, causing infection, pain, swelling, and sometimes pus discharge.
Common causes include:
Prolonged sitting or sedentary lifestyle
Ingrown hairs
Trauma to the area
Poor hygiene
If left untreated, pilonidal sinus can lead to recurrent infections and abscess formation, requiring surgical intervention.
