what can u do for a boil?

Question

is there a home remedie u can use for boils that will work my friend keeps getting them,even after doctor presc medication

Answer 1

keep it clean, keep it covered with a bandage, leakage from a boil causes them to spread (just like acne can spread because your face is dirty)

do not touch the boil

if you do touch the boil wash it and all around it with soap and water an peroxide and then clean your hands really well (if you have the leakage on your hands and touch another part of your body you can get another boil)

if the boil is big and sore apply heat and it will run & empty.....use hot soapy cloths instead of heating pads, afterward clean with peroxide and cover

you can cover it with egg white before you bandage it to bring it to a 'head'
the egg white tightens the skin around it

Answer 2

Maybe your friend should consult a doctor to see why they keep coming back. But, my husband had one and here is what I did. Crack a raw egg. Take the shell. On the inside of the shell, peel the slimy lining off. Put it on the boil. It will bring it to a head almost overnight.

Answer 3

Anyone who gets boils is run down so first of all get some vitamins,and plenty of rest. Your body is run down. Now to treat the boils get some white bread put it in hot water and drain the water out and put the hot bread on the boil as hot as you can take it. This will draw out the puss from the boils

Answer 4

I didn't know people still got those. Go to your doctor he will give you a sauve and then it takes a few days for it to rupture and then heal. Be careful not to spread it. Ewwwww Good Luck!

Answer 5

Answer 6
