I have a pilonidal sinus and I'm currently a student getting ready for college. I'm considering laser surgery but I'm not sure if it's the right choice. Is laser treatment more expensive than other options and roughly how much does it cost? Also, would it affect my studies or recovery time?

excision of the cyst is advised under laparoscopic methods.

I'm really concerned because I've got this painful lump between my butt cheeks, on the right side, and its vertically between my anus and genitals. It's pretty painful and it's making it tough to walk or sit comfortably. Any idea what this could be and how I should handle it?

surgery opinion is advised..

My doctor recommended either open surgery or laparoscopy for my condition and I'm not sure which one to choose. Can you explain the pros and cons of each? Also how many stitches should I expect after the procedure?

Open surgery often involves a single, larger cut while laparoscopic surgery uses several smaller ones. This typically results in less pain and a shorter hospital stay for those undergoing laparoscopic surgery. Furthermore, open surgery may leave a larger scar compared to the minor scarring from laparoscopic surgery.
