The best cure for a huge boil/abscess would be....?!


Question: It's for my brother


Answers: It's for my brother

Try putting hot compresses on it and put calendula cream on it. The hot compresses will help encourage it to open and the calendula cream will kill bacteria in the open wound or even while it is still closed.

see a doctor the infection may spread dont pop it

To be lanced by a doctor,,,don't do it yourself as it is full of poison and could get into your blood stream and cause scepticemia!!!!!!!!!

The hottest bath you can stand with half a bag of epson salt from cvs. Then cover using a&D ointment. Very good pain killers. Hydrocodone works great!

Do you know if it a boil or a sebaceas cyst or tumor? placement? hard or soft? painful during touch, moveable? discolored? Heat makes blood go to area, ice makes blood go from area...Heat can make it pop.... If abscess, that usually means infected--red, swelling,pus. If on the hand, usually sebaceas cyst.. May need to go to Dr.

Well in my opinion you should see a doctor for it. But in case you are looking for some home remedy take a look at this.
