Vicki’s story

October 1, 2015

I believe I have a pilonidal cyst. I have something just below my tailbone. It has been there since the beginning of 2015 maybe before that. It was swollen just under the size of a golf ball. It has never hurt but when I squeeze it really hard.

It has been leaking since March. I take a paper towel and squeeze as hard as I can. I can see pause and a small amount of blood coming out of it. I pretty much see a wet spot on my panties everyday from this cyst. My mom said her sister would get them and the only way to stop them from coming back was to make sure you get the white looking seed out. Now when I squeeze the area I can feel two small lumps.
