Reoccurring cyst on tailbone for 20 years. went away for 3 years,since a new ra med it has come back more painful every iv then goes away again. help!

Possible cyst: I suggest a surgical evaluation for a possible pilonidal cyst/abscess formation. Surgery is the definitive cure with associated antibiotic therapy.Without an examination, I still suggest surgical evaluation and treatment.
