Soak in very hot water to soften the skin, then try to pop it while submerged in water, or you can get "Drawzit" from the drug store and apply it, cover it up, and wait for it to work it's way out on it's own. It will usually only take a day or two that way and you wont be left with an ugly scar (purple mark). That's what I would do first.

boils are not anything like a pimple, you cant just pop it like a zit.
you really need to go to a doctors and have a it lanced and drained or you will end up with an enfection

Don't do it yourself!
It can get easily infected and that
is more painful than the boil itself.
See a doctor or go to a walk-in clinic.
If you can't go to a doctor, at least check
with the pharmacist before you do anything
yourself.

by asking your doctor to do it!
boils have large roots and cause a huge infection if not removed properly.
I would go to the doc's!

Go to the doctor. You may need antibiotics. Only the doctor can tell. Keep it clean and dry for now.
