Abstract

Pilonidal sinus is one among diseases of rectum and anal canal where usually a hair gets caught inside the skin near the sacral region between the buttocks. It is associated with foul smelling pus discharge and pain. Usually seen in jeep drivers and hair dressers.[1] Normal treatment followed is z plasty. But the healing of the wound is a challenging task. Here is a case of multiple opening pilonidal sinus of a 28 year old male where an integrative approach has been done successfully and the wound is applied with Kshara and finally daily dressing done with Jathyadi Ghrita is administered.
