very painful.: pilonidal cysts.

Just got mine removed this morning. 4" long and it was infected. Doctor said it came out nice and clean, however it was larger than he first anticipated. I have some body hair, but am not that hairy of a man. I had my first flare almost 7 years ago, and have had it drained 2 other times since then. I am able to walk but sitting is a pain in the ass. I have a total of 40 stitches, 20 inside and 20 on the surface. Hopefully they stay stitched and good news comes at my follow up in 2 weeks.
