CAN OCCUR ANYWHERE OF THE BODY
General Surgery Specialist Op. Dr. Ahmet Murat Koca, “Hair regrowth is medically defined as pilonidal sinus, pilonidal cyst or dermoid sacral cyst. Sometimes, although it is a congenital sinus, it does not show any symptoms for years, but over time, the disease may occur. Although it can be seen everywhere in the body, it can be encountered most frequently in the coccyx, around the navel, and in the groin. Symptoms may occur more after the formation of an abscess with the collection of inflammation. It is more common especially in the 20s.” said.
IN SOME CASES, PATIENTS CANNOT SIT
Kiss. Dr. Ahmet Murat Koca said that ingrown hairs can show itself with pain, tenderness, stiffness and foul-smelling discharge and continued his words as follows:
“The pain can cause the patient to be unable to sit. Sometimes itching and wetness may occur in the area. It can be seen frequently in men, overweight people, regionally hairy people, those who have hygiene problems and sweat a lot, those who wear tight clothes and those with familial predisposition. In untreated cases, although very rare, there is a certain risk of cancer. Diagnosis is possible with a good examination of the patient by a specialist doctor. In order to eliminate the problem of ingrown hairs, surgical treatment with flap, laser or radiofrequency application, drug administration, simple sinusectomy, excision and spontaneous treatment methods can be applied.”
TIGHTNESS CLOTHING SHOULD NOT BE WEAR
Stating that the most effective and least likely method of treatment is the removal of the diseased area with surgery and the closure of the area with tissue rotation, General Surgery Specialist Op. Dr. Ahmet Murat Koca said, “Sometimes, if the area is very inflamed, the surgery is done in 2 stages. First, the abscess is drained and the inflammation is treated and dried for 2-3 weeks. In the second stage, the extraction and closure method is applied. In addition, we can talk about the method of removing it and leaving it on its own in time in surgical methods. After the recovery period, the patient should keep the area hair-free, pay attention to hygiene and not wear tight and unhealthy clothes. In addition, they can find a solution to the weight problem and thus minimize the risks.” he said.
