What Causes Boils – How To Treat a Boil

1:35 pm January 22, 2010

A skin boil is really a localized infection. Its looks like a large pimple with a white center that is filled with a combination of white blood cells, bacteria, and protein – often referred to as pus.

Boils must be treated carefully because they can become infected and then you’ll need antibiotics to treat it. Also, boils are very contagious and can spread very easily to other parts of the body.

Ok, so what causes a boil? Well, there are several causes including: – A foreign object lodged into the skin – An ingrown hair or a clogged sweat gland – A cut, scrape, or break in the skin which eventually becomes infected – A staph-related bacteria infection – Bed sores from lack of movement

Boil Symptoms

Boils can form on areas of the body where the clothes rub against the skin or body parts rub against each other – like in the groin, underarm, inner thighs, and buttocks. Boils look like a raised red pimple with a white/yellow center. After a while the boil will become hard and sensitive to the touch. It can also become itchy and painful too.

Natural Home Remedies Boils

Treating a boil right away is important before complications set in or before it spreads to other parts of the skin causing more boils to form. Also, once they become infected treatment is even harder. There are some natural remedies you can try using ingredients from your own kitchen like – a garlic or turmeric compress.

To make a compress just crush the juice from one garlic clove with a garlic crusher, dab the juice to the head of the boil and cover with a band-aid. To make the turmeric compress, mix a small amount of turmeric powder with warm water to make a paste and gently apply it to the boil and cover it with a band-aid. Leave the compresses on until the boil becomes soft and can be wiped away with a wash cloth.
