Pilonidal cysts are small swellings that usually develop on top of the cleft of the buttocks. It is a kind of acquired lesion. Sometimes body hairs in folds of skin grow inwards. The presence of a foreign body prods your immune system and that is why an inflammatory reaction follows. Pilonidal cysts may also occur on the webbed region of the hands, axillae and the genitalia.

It is very common among men who sit for long hours at a stretch and are not involved in many physical activities.

What are the Symptoms of Pilonidal Cysts?

In the early phases, there will hardly be any symptoms. It appears as a tiny rash at the top of the buttocks. It fills up with pus and gradually the following symptoms manifest-

  • Fever

  • Pain when you sit or stand up

  • A painful swelling

  • The skin around the cyst will be sore and red

  • The cyst might ooze pus

Homoeopathy for the Treatment of Pilonidal Cysts - 

Homoeopathy is one of the most favoured branched of alternative medicine. The approach of homoeopathy towards treating an illness is unique. It does not simply mitigate the symptoms but believes in getting to the root of the issue. According to homoeopathy the body is equipped to heal itself. And the symptoms of everyone are individualistic. So there is no hard and fast rule for treatment. Your doctor will meticulously enquire after your medical history and your symptoms. Treatment does not mean simply vanquishing pilonidal cysts. An underlying health issue had prompted that hair to grow inwards. So, homoeopathy will dig deep to uncover the cause and treat that so that not only pilonidal cysts but also similar health complications never arise again.

The chief advantage of homoeopathic medicine for treating pilonidal cysts is that unlike allopathic medicines it will not trigger any adverse side effects and lay you low.

Homoeopathy is a trusted way to treat pilonidal cysts. It will ensure that the cysts never recur.
