I have a pilonidal sinus and need to get it surgically removed. Are there any surgeons in Mumbai who specialize in cleft lift surgery for pilonidal cysts? I really don't want to go for closed or open wound surgery only cleft lift. Any recommendations would help since I need to figure this out soon.

View allmy mother has a hernia issue which specialist should we see for this? are there any non-surgical options to treat hernia or is surgery the only solution?
For a hernia, you should consult a general surgeon, as they specialize in diagnosing and treating hernias. Non-surgical options like watchful waiting or using a supportive truss may help in mild cases, but surgery is usually the definitive treatment to repair the hernia and prevent complications. Early evaluation by a surgeon is recommended.

I'm really worried about my mom. She's been having this persistent lower abdominal pain, and a doctor back home suggested that it might be a hernia. I'm a bit confused about who we should see for a proper diagnosis and treatment. Should we be consulting a gastroenterologist, or is it better to visit a general surgeon for this kind of issue? Any guidance would be really helpful.
