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.

My dad has a walnut-sized lump, maybe a lipoma, that wasn't painful before but has been hurting for the past 23 days. What's the best way to treat this and how much would lipoma surgery cost along with the recovery time
If the lipoma is painful and bothering your dad, the most common treatment is surgical removal. This is typically done under local anesthesia as an outpatient procedure. Recovery time is generally 2-3 weeks. Lipoma surgery cost can range from ‚Çπ12,500 to ‚Çπ15,000, depending on factors like the technique used and the surgeon's fees
