On December 2006, I discovered that I have Pilonidal Sinus, and I went directly to the hospital and did an operation to remove the sinus. They did the operation and left the wound open, and did the dressing, but it seems that they haven’t cleaned the wound very well, which let the sinus come again.
On March 2007 I went to another hospital to make a new operation, and they made the surgery and opened a big hole, and left it open for dressing, then it took about 6 months till the wound got healed.
On October 2007 the sinus came again, and I went to another doctor, and he made for me a laser treatment in order to close the wound, I went for dressing for 2 months, then the wound has closed.
On January 2008, the sinus came again! So I went to a new hospital, and did the operation for me, and left the wound open, and I was going for dressing on regular basis, but the doctor informed me that my skin became very thin and it won’t close very quickly. So, I kept going for dressing till September 2008, and the doctor informed me that it is healed 100%.
Since then, the skin opens and closes from time to time, and some blood drops comes out, and whenever I go to my last doctor, he tells me it needs time to get healed, and this is normal because your skin is become too thin and it won’t heal as it was the first time, and he confirmed to me that surgically nothing to be done, and we should wait till the wound close by itself.
Honestly I became into a situation of not believing anybody, and I don’t know what to do!
Since January 2008, I am not sitting on my back as normal, and I try to sit on the side, but nothing has been changed.
I was thinking into visiting a Dermatologist, as it is regarding skin thickness, and seriously I feel myself lost.
Please help me as am my life became miserable
