Hi I'm a 14 year old boy and I think I have pilonidial sinus/cyst but I'm not sure.

I had a very bad cold in December 2007 and when I was lying down, I suddenly felt extreme pain by my rectum. It eventually faded away while I was asleep though.

A few days or a week later, I realized there was a lump by my anus. It hurt when I pressed it, sometimes when I sat and it hurt quite a lot when excreting. There would be some blood on the toilet paper. I also had a problem that mostly whenever I farted, there would be some light brown liquid coming out with it as well, so I had to keep a tissue in between my butt to stop it going on my underwear.

A few months later, the lump started fading away and there was not much pain as before, but it sometimes came back when I excreted. A few weeks later, the problems were mostly gone (except the pain and blood when excreting). A few days later, I realized there was some liquid on my underwear. I thought the lump had come back but it hadn't. I thought it just came out when I farted, but it happened again and again and it seemed like it just comes out by itself. So again, I had to have a tissue in between my butt.

One day after excreting, I decided to see where the blood was coming from. I saw a small hole right above my anus and the light brown liquid and blood seemed to be coming from there when originally, they used to come out of the anus.

I am very worried that it will get infected.

I have not yet told anyone about this because I am too shy and embarrassed and don't have the courage to tell anyone although I would like to see a doctor...

Please can someone tell me what I might have? Thank you :'(

Don't worry I am also have the same problem.. and right now searching the net for the same, and came to know that this is a normal thing and so many others do have this problem, by the way I am 27 years old and this problem started just may be 1 or 2 year back.. but now it's getting worst slowly so I had to look up for some help from net and finally able to see so many topics on net...

But now I will surely see a doctor.. and I will advice you too... take care..

It's pilonidal sinus! AND IF YOU KEEP ON ON DOING THIS LIKE PUTTUNG TISSUES SO IT WILL GET INFECTED. AND U WOLD HAVE TO GET IT OPERATED. SO ITS BETTER TO GO TO DERMATALOGIST AND GET ANTIBIOITICS. AND IT WILL GO AWAY.

First of all , if things go serious, dont be shy about your problem
you should tell to your parents ok?
I am 28 and about the lump i can tell you i have the problem right away and this is something that
i think is a slight Hemorrhoid signs. the start i mean.  for treatment :
If you have some kind of Constipation, change your dietary habits by increasing your fiber intake it will lossen your stool.
if you have bleeding you should go and say a doctor maybe it is internal hemorrhoid signs.
After all i can tell you being shy about these things is not reasonable in this situation.  first tell your parents.

I had this also. Blood from the rectum drilled a tunnel into my tush, and created an abscess. I went to a proctologist, and he made the hole by the anus larger to drain the blood. I also had to stay away from sugar and flour for 6 months, as the Dr. indicated the blood seems to increase with those in your diet.
