I am not trying to be gross or anything...but I get these like boils on my private area and I went to the dr and they said that they are common from heat! They don't ever like get heads on them. They just have knots in them and they can sometimes get really sore. after about 2 weeks they go away but they sometimes leave purple marks where they have been. I have been checked numerous numerous times for everything and nothing... Does anyone else get these and is there anything that I can try to get rid of them? P.S. I DO shower daily and I am a very clean person so I know it is not that. PLEASE serious answers only. If anybody can help I would greatly appreciate it!!!

Hi There

Its not an external issue, but an internal one. Here are some ideas to use to heal your condition. Also learn about detoxifying your body by doing a colon and liver cleanse to clear out the toxins in the system.

Cause
The infection is usually due to the bacteria Staphylococcus aureus.

Recurrent boils can occur in people with decreased immune function, diabetes, chronic gastrointestinal problems, under active thyroid, lowered resistance due to borderline nutrient deficiencies, and chronic emotional stress.


--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Natural Cures

Note: Bursting a boil can spread it, leaving scars, and usually does no good until the core is expelled.

Aromatherapy: Draw out the boil with bergamot, lavender, chamomile, and clary sage.

Ayurveda: To bring boil to a head, apply a poultice of cooked onions. Wrap in cloth and do not apply onion directly to boils. Application of a paste of 1/2 teaspoon each of tumeric and ginger powder directly to boil.

Diet: Eat plenty of green, orange, and yellow vegetables, which are cleansing (try to have at least four different types of green vegetables a day, and keep this up for at least six months). Increase fluids, drinking water throughout the day, and drinking water with juice of fresh lemon and one teaspoon of chlorophyll upon rising and before bed. Also avoid over-consumption of white sugar and white flour products.

Flower Essences: Rescue Remedy Cream® can be applied (minimum four times a day) on unbroken skin around, but not directly on, boils. Flower essences for negative feelings surrounding the problem, such as Rescue Remedy® to help alleviate stress or Crab Apple for low self-esteem, negative body image, and feeling toxic.

Herbs: A blend of the tinctures of echinacea, cleavers, and yellowdock in equal parts, taken one teaspoonful three times a day can help speed the healing time for boils. Additionally, drinking a cup of an infusion of nettle, preferably fresh herb, twice a day, can be helpful.

Homeopathy: Bellis, Belladonna, Hepar sulph., Arnica, Silicea, Apis mel., Arsen alb., and Lachesis are all useful homeopathic remedies that can be taken alone or in combination with each other. Phytolacca is another useful remedy, but it must be taken alone.

Hydrotherapy: Hydrotherapy is the application of water, ice, steam and hot and cold temperatures to maintain and restore health. Treatments include full body immersion, steam baths, saunas, sitz baths, colonic irrigation and the application of hot and/or cold compresses. Hydrotherapy is effective for treating a wide range of conditions and can easily be used in the home as part of a self-care program. Many Naturopathic Physicians, Physical Therapists and Day Spas use Hydrotherapy as part of treatment. I suggest several at-home hydrotherapy treatments.

Juice Therapy: Juice of parsley, spinach, celery, and pineapple may help to purify the blood. As an alternative, beet root juice can also be used, and is a traditional remedy used in Europe to help treat boils.

Nutritional Supplementation: The following nutrients can all be helpful for treating boils, due to their ability to boost immunity: garlic capsules, kelp, chlorophyll, proteolytic (pancreatic) enzymes (taken on empty stomach two to three times daily away from meals), vitamin A, beta carotene, vitamin E, coenzyme Q10, raw thymus glandular, and zinc.

For boils compounded by chronic emotional stress, also consider adrenal and thymus glandulars, vitamin B5 (1 gram four times daily), and vitamin C (1 gram every hour).

Topical Treatment: Apply a mixture of honey, the oil from vitamins E and A, and zinc oxide to the infected areas. Do this several times a day, up to once per hour. Other effective topical treatments include a poultice of goldenseal root powder paste, hot Epsom salt pack (two tablespoons in one cup water), tea tree oil, or a poultice of one part sesame oil and one part lime juice mixed and applied externally.

Colloidal silver applied topically can also result in marked improvements.

Alternative Professional Care
If your symptoms persist despite the above measures, seek the help of a qualified health professional. The following professional care therapies have all been shown to be useful for treating and relieving the symptoms of boils: Detoxification Therapy, Environmental Medicine, Fasting, Guided Imagery, Magnetic Field Therapy, Naturopathic Medicine, Osteopathy, Oxygen Therapy, and Traditional Chinese Medicine.

Best of health to you

If you've been to the dr and diagnosed as nothing serious, these could be the same thing as pimple or acne, only not grown on the face. The human body could be similar to a the underground of the earth where there are many fault lines, when melted rock goes up one of the fault lines the volcano erupts. So do our bodies, but different people have different "fault lines". Some people have pimples all over the face, some on their back, others down under, or even under their gum. This has nothing to do with bathing your body, but has to do with cleansing your internal system. Although some western doctors still claim deep fried food, chocolate etc don't cause pimples, a lot of people have experience that proves otherwise. Coffee is especially bad for such type of boils which actually is a result of inflammation. Changing your diet and cleansing your internal system might help, look for all the anti-inflammatory food. Some suggestions of excellent inflammatory food include whole oat, apple, fresh fruit and vegetable juice, beans. Food to avoid is sugar, red meat, dairy products.

There are glands in a woman's vag area that can get blocked. They become sore and swollen. This is actually common. Most doctors give a short course of antibiotics for this. If they are recurrent you might want to look into having them removed.

I get something similar on my upper thighs about a week before my period. I'm not sure of the connection or how to get rid of them. Sorry.

From what you are describing, it sounds like you might be suffering from Hidradenitis Suppurativa. You can check out http://www.hs-usa.org for more info and to see if anything there sounds familar.

try wearing looser airy clothing if possible. Tight jeans and pantyhose are bad for this.
