Pilonidal Sinus: Pre-Op & Post-Op Care

Preparation for Pilonidal Sinus Surgery

The patients undergo various diagnostic tests and physical examinations, and the surgeon takes a thorough past medical history.

During Cyst Removal Procedure

An incision is made in the swelling, and the pus is drained out of the wound and stitched up to allow healing. To stop the pus from leaking, it is collected with packaging material. The sinus and the surrounding damaged tissue are removed through a diamond-shaped incision. Later, the wound is stitched up and allowed to heal.

Post-Surgical and Recovery Phase

The cyst could take up to 4 weeks to fully heal, and in the meantime, the surgeons perform wound dressing and then advise the patient to change the dressing every 2-3 days. Followed by the patient’s discharge as soon as the drain is removed. Whereas the complete recovery phase will be around 1-2 months.

FAQ's

This is contingent upon the type of surgical procedure undertaken. It may be a minor procedure involving only incision and drainage, a major procedure involving removal of infected tissue and skin, or a minimally invasive laser surgery with reduced pain and bleeding.

The pain during or after the surgery depends on the pain threshold of the patient, the surgeon’s expertise, and the complexity of the procedure. However, pilonidal cyst surgery is not painful, but things seem worse before it gets better. For example, in open surgeries, the patient may experience mild discomfort and pain, which is treated with prescribed painkillers for a week. In the case of laser surgery, painkillers are given for 2–3 days.

Sitting is beneficial after the surgery as it keeps the gluteal crease open and promotes normal healing, but the patient must avoid sitting on a hard surface for longer periods. The experts advise using a doughnut pillow and placing it beneath the buttocks.

Pilonidal sinus surgery cost in Hyderabad ranges from Rs. 30,000 to Rs. 80,000. It depends on the type of procedure, the patient’s condition, and the surgeon’s experience. On average, the pinodal sinus excision and primary closure cost Rs. 45,000, and the laser techniques cost Rs. 60,000.

A pilonidal cyst can reoccur after the surgery in patients with the treatment performed for the first time if the condition is genetic or due to poor hygiene. The best way to prevent the recurrence is to keep the area clean and free of hair.
