I got a pilonidal cyst drained, but still a hard lump after healing , no pain no anything . will it go away? is it normal ?

Maybe: The body takes time to fully heal such a problem & it could gradually fade over months. However, these can recur and a surgical dissection to eliminate the cyst & any associated sinus tract may me needed if it does not. Time will tell.
