I have a double hernia on both sides and I'm really worried about which surgery option open or laparoscopic would give me a permanent fix with no chance of it coming back. Is there one that offers a lifetime guarantee?

My friend has a pilonidal cyst and initially tried allopathic meds thinking it was just a boil but the pain didn't go away. Now he's doing ayurvedic treatments like medicated water seatings and some medicines which have helped with the pain but he's unsure if he should go for ayurvedic surgery or if homeopathy could work too. What would you recommend for long-term relief?

A pilonidal cyst is usually treated in your health care provider's office. After numbing the area, your health care provider makes a small cut to drain the cysts. If the cyst returns, you may need surgery.
