Which treatment option is best for completely getting rid of a pilonidal cyst with the lowest chance of it coming back normal surgery with stitches, laser surgery, or Kshar Sutra? Also, can you recommend a good hospital in Pune for this treatment?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
To minimize pilonidal cyst recurrence after surgery, focusing on hair removal and maintaining proper hygiene is crucial. Laser hair removal, shaving, or other hair removal methods can help prevent ingrown hairs, a major factor in recurrence. Additionally, keeping the area clean and dry through daily cleansing and sitz baths is essential.

I'm really worried about my mom as shes been diagnosed with a hernia. Who should we talk to for this, and is there any way to manage a hernia without having to go through surgery? Just trying to explore all options.
For a hernia problem, you should consult a General Surgeon. Surgery is the most effective treatment for hernias, but in some cases, a truss or supportive garment may be recommended to help manage the hernia without surgery. However, it is important to consult with a doctor to determine the best course of action based on the specific type and severity of the hernia.
