HOMOEOPATHIC REMEDIES FOR PILONIDAL SINUS OR CYST
A pilonidal sinus or cyst
is an abnormal pocket in the skin that usually contains hair and skin debris. A
pilonidal cyst is almost always located near the tailbone at the top of the
cleft of the buttocks.
Pilonidal cysts usually occur when hair punctures the skin and
then becomes embedded. If a pilonidal cyst becomes infected, the resulting
abscess is often extremely painful. The cyst can be drained through a small
incision or removed surgically.
Pilonidal cysts most commonly occur in young men, and the
problem has a tendency to recur. People who sit for prolonged periods of time,
such as truck drivers, are at higher risk of developing a pilonidal cyst
Causes--The exact cause of pilonidal cysts isn't clear. But most
pilonidal cysts appear to be caused by loose hairs that penetrate the skin.
Friction and pressure — skin rubbing against skin, tight clothing, bicycling,
long periods of sitting or similar factors — force the hair down into skin.
Responding to the hair as a foreign substance, the body creates a cyst around
the hair.
This explanation accounts for rare cases of pilonidal cysts that
occur in parts of the body other than near the tailbone. For example, barbers,
dog groomers and sheep shearers have developed pilonidal cysts in the skin
between fingers.
Symptoms--When it's infected, a pilonidal cyst becomes a swollen mass
(abscess). Signs and symptoms of an infected pilonidal cyst include:
·
Pain
·
Reddening of the skin
·
Drainage of pus or blood from an opening in the skin
·
Foul smell from draining pus
Risk factors--Certain factors can make you more susceptible to
developing pilonidal cysts, such as:
·
Male sex
·
Younger age (pilonidal cysts are most common in people in their
20s)
·
Obesity
·
Inactive lifestyle
·
Occupation requiring prolonged sitting
·
Excess body hair
·
Stiff or coarse hair
Complications--If a chronically infected pilonidal cyst isn't
treated properly, you may be at slightly increased risk of developing a type of
skin cancer called squamous cell carcinoma
Prevention--To help prevent pilonidal cysts, try to:
·
Keep the area clean
·
Lose weight if needed
·
Avoid prolonged sitting
If you've had pilonidal cysts in the past, you might want to
regularly shave the area or use hair removal products to reduce the risk of
recurrence.
