Default ongoing infection or operation ?

Hi all. ongoing infection or operation ?

A brief recap
Two and a half years ago I had a 3 inch square hole cut in my butt to remove a badly infected pilonidal abscess. 2 nights in hospital then 4 weeks in bed.
It was after that that the first symptoms of PD occurred - tremor, frozen shoulder, arm not swinging when walking etc.
The abscess never cleared, so I have lived with it ever since. (It has a 40% chance of reoccurring after surgery so I was reluctant to try again)

Today I saw a haemotoligist for a high platelet count, one possible reason being the ongoing infection.
So which is worse for my PD ? The ongoing infection, or further surgery and recuperation with no guarantee of success ?
Hmmmmmmmmmm lol

Flips a coin
