Boils are bumpy, red, pus-filled lumps around a hair follicle that are tender, warm, and
very painful. They range from pea-sized to golf ball-sized. In a severe infection, an
individual may experience fever, swollen lymph nodes, and fatigue.
Boils are usually caused by a bacterial staph infection on the skin. The bacteria starts
colonizing in the hair follicles and causes inflammation.
The most common complications of boils are scarring and infection or abscess of the skin,
spinal cord, brain, kidneys, or other organs. Infections may also spread to the bloodstream
and become life-threatening.
A small boil may burst and drain on its own without any assistance. In some instances,
however, draining can be encouraged by application of a cloth soaked in warm salt water.
Washing and covering the boil with antibiotic cream or oil and a bandage also promotes healing.
Boils should never be squeezed without the oversight of a doctor because it may spread
the infection.
Antibiotic therapy is advisable for large or recurrent boils or those that occur in
sensitive areas.
The fastest treatment for boils with the most lasting results is a homeopathic oral spray
called BoilX. BoilX is safe for adults and children 12 and older and is applied by spraying
the formula under your tongue three times a day.
