It sounds like you are talking about a pilonidal cyst.

A lot of different doctors treat them. ER doctors see them regularly and some (but not all) primary care doctors can open them. General surgeons, plastic surgeons and some dermatologists will also treat them. If it is large or a persistent problem a wound clinic may help.

If you’re stuck in a hydraulic boil:Keep your lifejacket on, it may be a hindrance while you’re stuck in the boil but it’ll help you when you get out.The boil will keep pushing you though a cycle, pulling you from the water’s surface to the bottom, over and over again. To get out, you must break out of that cycle. The boil may pull you through multiple times before you’re able to get out.
