Since the boil is near knee joint if the skin is breached , there is potential risk of your knee getting infection . As you have discomfort  while walking,  There might be effusion of you knee or infection . Local warmth on the knee on touching it by hands, pain while bending knee, +/-fever are signs of infection . Consult an orthopedician
