Noticed A Pilonidal Cyst On Left Side Of Butt Crack

I think I may have a pilonidal cyst, i havent been able to sit or sleep comfortably for a year. I have a small reddish circle on the left upper side of my butt crack. its a small lump. I noticed i have two small holes in the top crease of my butt crack as well. I used to smoke cannabis very often and when I stopped, I noticed i started having tailbone area issues... I am not sure what I can do for myself to help?

Hi, Welcome to Health care magic forum.
As you describe, it may be the pilonidal cyst, or may be the arthritis of the sacrococcigial joints.
I advise you to consult a surgeon for diagnosis and treatment. You may need to have a C.T.scan for diagnosis and treatment.
I usually prescribe to my patient with such symptoms neurotropic injections for 10 consecutive days,and then periodically,calcium suppliments, and pain killers.
Avoid taking potato, other tubers,tomato,egg, chicken,and and sea foods.
Wishing for a quick and complete recovery. Thank you.
