Pilonidal cyst? Lost of pain. Please help.

Got diagnosed with pilonidal cyst/abscess today. It HURTS. They couldnt drain it because it hasnt developed far enough (its just a hard swollen lump right now) so they gave me antibiotics, and told me to take motrin as needed. The motrin isnt helping. Has anyone else ever dealt with this? How did you relieve the pain at home? I'm in a lot of pain and have to go back to work tomorrow!! Please help.
