sling appars to be coming out of butt cheek

I had fallen bladder; surgery vaginal floor reconstruction several years ago.  Seems to have had no major problems until recently.  I developed sore on my butt cheek, which now has popped, draining much green puss and I had a white material coming out of the "sore".  I cut it last night, it was about 1/2 in long.  I'm assuming it's my sling.  What I can't figure out is the location, toward inside of cheek midway between vagina and anus.  I do have a doctor appt with a general surgeon, my doctor office said they thought it was a pilonidal cyst.  I don't think so....
Has anyone every heard of such.

I hope you saved what you cut out.  That does not sound like a cyst to me.  Go to pelvicfloor.com to see what some of the other women who have problems with mesh are saying.  What kind of mesh was it?
