Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..
I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns.
As per your complain a boil is an infection of the hair follicle or an oil gland leading to formation of an
abscess or a pus filled boil..
In case if it is leaking clear fluid it is indicating that the healing is taking place as clear fluid moistens the surface of the lesion and help in healing.
In case if still there is some sticky discharge it means that the infection has not completely resolved and you still need to continue the treatment..
You can clean the area with antiseptic solution and apply a
Triple antibiotic ointment over it..
You need not to bandage it and let it dry open..
You should avoid moisture exposure to the area..
Keep the area dry and clean..
In case if it still does not resolve in a week you can consult a General Physician and get evaluated and if needed he can advise you an oral antibiotic course..
Hope this information helps..
Thanks and regards.
