Hii sir I have a small sore like a tiny pimple in my last part of tailbone since 4-5 year. It seeps pus n gradually dries up automatically. After some days .it again. Acts like that regularly maintaining 1 month. Am totally confused what to do. Somehow I google the symptoms and it is closed enough for pilonidal sinus. So what is that and how would I cure that?

It's called a pilonidal cyst, and it can become infected and filled with pus. Once infected, the technical term is ?pilonidal abscess,? and it can be painful. It looks like a large pimple at the bottom of your tailbone. It is more common in men than in women. Let's have a detailed discussion to ensure proper treatment.
