I just had surgery to remove mine. Depending on size they either drain it or they perform a procedure known as "marsupialisation". Drainage is performed under general anaesthetic and a small incision is made and the pus and abscess and is removed. The wound is then left to open heal which requires daily changing of the bandage. A nurse has to "pack" the wound with gauze which is very painful, usually for about 2 weeks.
A pilonidal abscess, or pilonidal cyst, is an infection occurring near the intergluteal cleft. It's often caused by an ingrown hair.

An abscess is a sore on the gum that is caused by an infection. The only way to treat an abscess is to get an antibiotic from your dentist.
take it to the vets!
You take it to a dentist.
It really just depends on how deep it is, and how you treat it.
The only way that I could see an abscess forming is if it gets infected and you don't treat it properly. If you take the jewelry out with an infection, you trap the infection and an abscess forms. Otherwise, you're good to go!
