Question: Swollen glands in the back of my head, is it related to boils in the area!?
Answers:
It could be a problem with your lymphatic ( lymph nodes) system!. I have a problem called Hidradentis Suppurativa, It causes me to get large painful boils and screws up all of my glands!.!.!. I would talk to a doc about some antibiotics ,and or possibily draining it!. If this is a reoccuring problem!.!. then you might have to take some more action!. Reduce the ammount of enriched flour products ( like white breads and pastas) and SUGAR which also is a big trigger in getting these boils!. Your lymph nodes filter crap thru your body and when it gets clogged it backs up and causes these boils!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Probably yes!. See your GP and get some treatment!. In the meantime, buy some 'corsodyl' mouthwash(it contains chlorhexidene) soak a cotton bud and apply it to the boils for a couple of minutes 4 or 5 times a day!. I know it sounds silly but it really will help!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
