Hello jai,

Thanks for your query.

It is not curable by medicines.

It needs to be addressed surgically.

They are of two types high and low type.

If not operated you will have repeated infection which will present as pus discharge.

Hope I have answered your query.

I will be available for your follow up queries if any.

Wishing you good health.

Regards,
