Find Your Best Home Treatmenr For Boils

By Tom James


Boils are typically harmless, but can be very disturbing and painful. They are a result of a bacterial infection in a hair follicle, mostly staphylococcus. Different skin infections can be caused by poor nutrition, low level of hygiene or weakened immune system. Sometimes they may require medical help, but home treatmenr for boils can also be very helpful.

The average boil will appear on any part of the body, but usually on the face, thigh, groin, buttocks or underarm. It probably grows for about two weeks, and during that time it fills with pus. After that, it will burst, bringing you a relief. You should never try to pop the boil with a needle, you will only make it worse.

Your goal is to relief yourself from the pain, and to drain your boil faster. One of the most popular ancient home remedies is simple cornmeal. Just boil some water and add cornmeal to make a thick paste. Apply this paste to inflamed area and cover it with a piece of cloth. Change it hourly.

You can also try putting hard-boiled egg white on inflamed area. Egg white should be wet and covered with a piece of cloth. The combination of cornmeal, milk and sea salt is also effective. Change it regularly, maybe every half-hour, and it will decrease the pain and speed up things. Remember, the boil needs to burst by itself.

You can try to apply warm compresses on infected area. Soaking might be helpful, and decrease the pain as well. In time, the boil will burst, bringing you the desired relief. Now is the time to wash and disinfect it, because all that pus have to be removed. Antibiotic creams and ointments should be applied, and you should cover the area with a piece of cloth to protect it.

Tea tree oil will use as a natural antiseptic, in all stages. Colloidal silver cream is a natural disinfectant, and very useful for this purpose. Some people use toothpaste and salty bacon to make their boils burst faster. Garlic, potato and onion slices are quite effective as well. After the burst, everything should be well cleaned and disinfected. Sometimes apple vinegar may be used for this.

Healthy life style is the best home treatmenr for boils. Avoiding cigarettes, sugar and alcohol, as well as industrial, processed food is essential for that. You should take care of your hygiene and take vitamins A, C and E to have healthy and strong immune system, and you won't have similar problems any more. In case these remedies aren't effective, ask for medical help.
