How often can a pilondal cyst reoccur?

As often as it gets obstructed with dead hair, skin sheddings and bacteria. It can be affected by job patterns, eg. prolonged driving, motorbike riding, excessive sweating etc. The best way of preventing a recurrence is to have the cyst surgically excised. This completely opens the area and the wound is packed with gauze so it heals from the inside out. It is important to know if the cyst was already operated. If the answer is yes, it can also reoccur.
