If it is a boil you want it to come to a head and drain. It is like a huge deep pimple, and eventually the pus will drain out of it and it will feel better. You might to apply warm compresses (warm wash cloth) to the area to help speed the draining. You can put some antibotic cream on it and a bandage in the meantime too. The doctor might lance it and drain it when you are in the office.
