History of a patient with a pilonidal cyst

One of our patients shared his story of battling pilonidal cyst on Reddit. It’s a moving account of many years of pain, uncertainty, and waiting for effective treatment. His experience shows how much of a difference honest communication with the patient, a correct diagnosis, and specialized treatment can make. His story is far from unique. Many patients come to us after years of unsuccessful treatments, often feeling they have already exhausted all possible options.
