nothing special you can use hair remover regularly. but check the reactions before using any. try putting a small amount in any hidden area wait for 24 hours, if there is no rash or itch or redness that means it is suitable for your skin.

Hi, welcome to HealthcareMagic.

In growth of hair in the sacral region can lead to a condition called pilonidal cyst/sinus/abscess or sacrococcygeal fistula. This can be prevented from happening by use of depilating creams, regular shaving of the area or simple scrubbing. You can also consult a dermatologist for hair removal by laser or electrolysis.
