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.
