I had a surgical procedure done to remove cellulitis on my left inner butt cheek 2 years ago. it keeps reaccuring every 3-6 months?

Could be: pilonidal cyst/sinus that keeps on getting recurrently infected. Definitive treatment is excision of the entire sinus. Or it could be something else, so consult with a surgeon.
