I am 17 years old male and I have pilonidal sinus from last 3 months. I have not taken any medicine. Someone said to me that it can be only treated with surgery but I do not want to do surgery. Advice me what should I do now?

These home treatments include the following: Sitz baths: Sitting in a tub of warm water up to the hips can relieve pain and may reduce the chances the cyst will worsen. Vitamin C and zinc supplements can help in the healing process. Vitamin A also helps with tissue repair.
