See your surgeon: Pilonidal operations commonly have healing difficulties. You should return to your surgeon and have him/her look at the area to optimize your treatment.

Sinus: I would suggest you go back to the surgeon who did the operation for further evaluation, you should not be having a discharge from the site at this point.
