sounds like a bone infection and have many of them over the years. A simple blood test can tell if your blood count is off and also possibly taking of the area itself. I spent over two years to convince my doctor about a bone infection but did not listen to me! I located some doctors a couple hours away and they quickly determined that I had a bad bone infection. No surgery on the outside area is going to keep it closed, if there is infection in the bone. Any other questions feel free to ask and yes it took surgery to resolve my issues

I can't recall the exact numbers, something like 2.5 cn x .6 cn. It was not too deep, but then tunneled towards 1 o'clock. It slowly healed about half way in 8 month. Then within a week it just went back to the beginning. We pack it with Collagen AG. We tried a few different things, but nothing is helping. I assumed the sore was from sleeping on that side yet changing sides has not helped. Then we thought it had to be from the back of my chair. The padding was flat and the bottom of the chair's back was real hard. I got a new pad and lowered my cushion so the sore area now does not touch the back. There is now a 2 inch gap between the top of the cushion and the bottom of the chair's back. Yet this sore just will not heal up. The doc is suggesting starting to think of surgery. He thinks it might have started as a Pilonidalcyst, but there was never an infection or anything. Very frustrating. Greg
