I have 4 small pilonidal sinuses and an (unrelated) anal fistula. The doctor said to get operated for both at the same time "while she's at it." Is this a good idea or is it better to do the each operation separately?
My concern is that the healing/caring for the fistula will impede the healing and caring for the pilonidal operation and vice versa.
Edit:
The problem with the pilonidal operation is that apparently it's gonna make sitz baths very difficult... Can't get that area or the packing wet and apparently reduces movement too, so I can't really bend much and take care of properly cleaning the fistulotomy wound. That was my main concern...
