Boils are formed when bacteria gets in or around a hair follicle. When that hair follicle becomes clogged or infected, painful and red boils form under the surface. By using this topical solution, you can help your body naturally protect against clogged pores and infected follicles.
No matter where you get them, boils (also known as skin abscesses) are difficult to deal with, and they usually erupt in the worst possible places-under your arms, along creases and skin folds, inside the thighs, on your face...just about anywhere...and they can be excruciating!
Boils are localized infections caused by bacteria or toxins that find their way into your skin and infect deep skin tissues.
A boil is a bacterial skin infection that forms in hair follicles and oil glands. Boils usually develop in regions of the body that experience friction or pressure, such as the face, armpits, groin, shoulders, and buttocks.
Boils begin as painful, red bumps that develop a pus-filled head as they progress. Most boils burst, drain, and heal within 2 days to 3 weeks of forming. A boil on the eyelid is known as a stye.
While it is never recommended to attempt to open or drain a boil at home, there are several relatively simple ways to help speed up the process naturally. Most boils do not lead to scarring unless forced open.
A collection of boils (carbuncles) and very large boils require medical attention to prevent the risk of serious complications, including sepsis and death.
The safest, easiest way to remove a boil at home is to use a warm compress to speed up the natural drainage process. Warmth increases the pressure in the infected pore as it slowly draws pus and blood to the surface of the skin.
With regular application of a warm compress, the boil should eventually burst open and drain fully.
As long as the opened boil is kept clean, dry, and protected, it should heal within a few days to weeks depending on its size and location.

Using a warm, slightly damp compress on the site of the boil will allow it to open.
A person can treat small, uncomplicated boils by:
soaking a clean washcloth or towel in hot water
wringing most of the water out of cloth and squeezing it into a compress
applying the warm compress to the boil for 10 to 15 minutes
repeating this process 3 to 4 times daily, or until the boil has opened
Once the boil has opened, a person can help it heal and prevent infection by:
Rinsing the sore gently with antibacterial soap and covering it with a sterile bandage or gauze.
Washing the hands thoroughly with antibacterial soap any time they touch, handle, or change the dressing on the boil or sore.
Changing bandages and gauze 2 to 3 times a day depending on the area.
Cleaning the area immediately whenever it may have become dirty.
Not touching or rubbing the sore as it heals.
Washing clothing and bedding with hot water and drying it on a hot setting while the sore is healing.
Using anti-inflammatory and pain medications, such as ibuprofen or acetaminophen, can help reduce the pain, swelling, and redness associated with boils as they heal.
Typically, antibiotic ointments and creams are not helpful in treating boils, as they do not penetrate infected skin or pores.
It is essential never to force a boil to burst or open at home. While painful, a boil is the body's way of defending itself from a much more serious risk.
If boils cluster together or develop into pockets deep under the skin (cellulitis), they can burst and leak the infection into the bloodstream.
If left untreated, bacterial bloodstream infections can cause organ failure, sepsis, coma, toxic shock syndrome, and eventually death.
