Pilonidal cysts or sinus typically occur between the ages of 15 and 35. Although usually found near the coccyx (tail bone), the condition can also affect the navel, armpit or genital region though these locations are much rarer.
One proposed cause of pilonidal cysts is ingrown hair. The disease starts with small dimple like depression. Broken hairs around the dimple travel into the dimple and form a sinus which can get infected due to prolonged sitting and sweating. Continued infection with low oxygen environment in that area leads to formation of an abscess. This can burst open to give continuous foul smelling pus discharge.
