How do i treat a pilonidal cyst while pregnant?

If you have a: significant pilonidal cyst - would not self-treat. Start with your obstetrician who may or may not need to refer you to a surgeon. Take care.

Conservatively : If infected you may need drainage -- this can be done with local anesthesia or minimal sedation. If not, it can probably wait until after you deliver.
