Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi, I had a red boil on scrortum and has been hurting a lot since last night. Any cream that I could apply or any other medicine that I should take to first get relief from the pain and then removing the book. The adjoining area around the boil has swollen and the skin has become hard along with excruciatingly painful.
Hello dear I understand your concern Boil is due to bacterial infection, most commonly by staphylococcus. Examination by general surgeon will help in the diagnosis. Doctor will give following advises: Local application of the bacitracin/neomycin gel Tablet ampiclav Table diclofenac three times a day Tablet rantac before meal Warm pad application. Once it become soft, unresponsive boil can be removed by excision. Wear pure cotton loose inner Avoid sweats in affected area. Do not pop up the boil and maintain proper hygiene and sanitaion. Hope this may help you
