Episode 2: Understanding Pilonidal Cyst Disease – From My Perspective

Welcome back to Living With Pilonidal Cyst Disease! In this episode, I dive deeper into understanding pilonidal cysts — from my own perspective, not as a medical professional, but as someone who’s lived through it.

I share what it felt like to experience symptoms, how I first noticed something was wrong, and the impact it had on my daily life — physically, mentally, and emotionally. I also talk about the journey from the very first cyst to surgery, and the after-effects that most people don’t discuss.

This episode is for anyone curious about pilonidal cysts, going through it themselves, or supporting someone who is. It’s a raw, honest account of what it’s really like — because no one should have to feel alone in this experience.
