Hello lybrate-user
numbness and pain are few of the post op complications. They can be managed by medication. Be sure you don't have a recurrence. Kindly consult your doctor once.

Waiting and delaying will spread it further so you should go for surgery as soon as possible, but no emergency! There are lots of surgical procedures available for pilonidal sinus Ksharsutra is one of them and after doing and experiencing all types surgeries. I am in favor of Ksharsutra for my patients as it has negligible recurrence and cosmetically better results. Also note Ksharsutra can be successfully used in many other diseases also.
