I have furunculosis as boil keeps reoccurring at the same place. Please suggest permanent solution. I have taken tablet Augmentin 625 mg and apply Bactafuz cream. It cures and then again reoccurs in some time.

To prevent recurrence apply mupirocin ointment twice daily for one week of every month for 6 months.Sometimes the antibiotic you are taking may be resistant.Pus culture and sensitivity has to be done to decide the right antibiotic.
