How Can A Boil Around The Vagina Be Treated?
Hi, I am 29 year old married woman, i am getting boil near my vagina which is not going since a month. I got married in February and also I went through a minor incision surgery for bartholin abscess. I met with a dermatologist, taking the medicines but it is taking a lot of time to get healed. Thanks

Hello,
A boil is a superficial bacterial infection and can be managed easily.
As of now, you can use topical antibiotics like Mupirocin after cleaning with soap and water.
If symptoms persist better to consult a gynecologist and start on antibiotics.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
