I had surgery for a pilonidial sinus a year ago but it's coming back again is there any way to treat it without going through another operation
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Recurrent pilonidal sinus often requires surgery. However, some less invasive options like laser treatment or drainage may be available. Consult with a colorectal surgeon to explore these alternatives.

I had fissure surgery 5 years ago and now there's a perianal abscess near my anus. The scan shows a small thick-walled abscess about 15x12mm at the 6 o'clock position, 13mm deep to the anal verge. No mass or deep issues in the rectum were found. Should I be worried about this abscess coming back after treatment? What are my options to prevent it from recurring?
Yes, there's a possibility that your perianal abscess could recur, especially if an anal fistula is present. Treatment usually involves incision and drainage, and sometimes surgery to address a fistula if present. Preventing recurrence involves good hygiene, preventing constipation, and potentially surgical intervention for fistula management

Had inguinal hernia surgery 11 days ago and got my sutures removed yesterday is it safe to ride a self-start bike without kickstarting or should I wait longer
It’s best to avoid riding for at least 2–3 weeks post-hernia surgery to prevent strain and ensure proper healing.
