What Is The Small Clot Near My Tail Bone?

Hello doctor,
I had pilondial abscess 6 months back and it drained out completely. Now I find a small clot near my tail bone and whenever I bend I hav a acute pain. There is no puss formation. Which doctor must I seek advice and will I hav to undergo a surgery?

Hi,

Thanks for writing to HCM.

Clots usually dont cause pain. Its more likely to be an abscess only, a recurrence of your pilonidal abscess. Its known to reoccur. You need to go back to your surgeon for its drainage.
