Too many boils in my scalp and face

2019-07-21 21:43:12
I keep getting boils in my scalp and it is very painful. I've had this problem for so long but now it is getting worse. I'm getting two new boils everyday and mostly in scalp and my face. Boils in my face are huge and not that painful but boils in my scalp is small and painful. Please help me find the root cause and possible solution for this. Thanks
