What Causes Boils On The Body When Diagnosed With High Triglyceride Levels?
Hi doc, good morning. I am constantly facing eruption of boils on my body since 6 months. If one boil gets treated another pops out and so on. Pls suggest. I am applying soframycin cream which was suggested by Dr. Sharad Mehta our family physician but have no relief. I am having high triglycerides. Awaiting your inputs.

Hello,
It is nothing but a collection of pus in the hair follicles.
Consult a dermatologist and get evaluated. The pus has to be drained and antibiotics have to be started.
Make sure that your blood sugar level is within the normal range as uncontrolled diabetes can cause recurrent boils.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain, General & Family Physician
