Did you ask the Dr?

Due to the disscussion I found the name you use to be quite knee slapping. At least you can have humor about such a bad situation. I have had a boil before. I never had them reoccour which makes me think maybe there is something in you're body like an infection. Maybe something on the same lines of Staff? I would definitly talk to a doctor. They are real painful.

Do you what causes them as seeking asked, have you seen and asked your doctor the cause of the boils? I have never had any. best wishes

Did you really name yourself Popme? That is hilarious. If this is a joke it is funny. If not I am sorry, and get some medical attention.

Here is some information about boils I just found. Hope this helps

I used to get small ones on my inner thighs and calves and got sick of going to the doc so I sliced them open with an exacto knife and just picked out all the stuff and poured peroxide over them. I do not recommend doing this unless you have some training (I was hahaha, a veterinary technician).

Turns out it was from my Lycra riding britches, now I have to wear cotton.

It would seem as though the Dr who pos and packs them would have given you medicine and or information at that time...hmmm

OMG!!!

Most boils are caused by a bacteria called Staphylococcus. This germ enters the body through tiny breaks in the skin or by traveling down a hair to the follicle.

Sometimes this can be a sign of kidney disfunction. Also boils will spread after surfacing. Extreme hygene, poroxide rubbing alcahol may help.

Thank you all for the information. I just got back from the doctor again and they are going to have me fast and go back again to check to see if I am diabetic.

I once had one under my armpit but I simply thought it was a pimple so I let it go. A month later I had 3 under my armpit and they really hurt! But I was too embarrassed to ask for help so I left it. When it got to the point where I could no longer shave under there (it was just too painful an experience) I finally saw a dr who basically told me to not shave and not wear deodorant.

What the hell! I'm a young girl! I'm not going to NOT do those things! So I went back and saw my family dr when he was available and he put me on antibiotics. They cleared up in 2 weeks and never came back.

The end.

I have had them and alot of them...It has to do with your system being very run down...I deal with them myself now...Its painful to get them open then you need to try to get as much out as possible then dress them with magnaplas...It is a thick white paste that draws the pus out...It is time consuming but worth the effort...

The staff bug is killing people in America right now it has become a superbug and resistant to just about any treatment so be careful.
