Hey on December 21st I had my second pilinidal cyst (I probably misspelled that) cyst removal surgery. The first surgery I had to get 18inches of skinn cut open and this second one wasn't as dramatic, however it did cut all the way down to the bone. Until now it has been healing fine, however over the past 4 or 5 days I have been experiencing a very uncomfortable pain where part of the wound has healed. My wound is only about 0.5cm deep now and about 4cm long. What I am wondering is what could be causing this pain that I am experience (is it nerves healing, another cyst forming, etc.) and also is it safe to soak in a hot tub to help with this pain. I am concerned with soaking in the tub because I still have a wound opening from the surgery and don't want it to become infected. Any imput or advise would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
~Chris
