Boil on buttocks

Question

Boil on buttocks

Asked for Female, 32 Years

My daughter has been frequently getting boils on buttocks that are red and swollen and very painful. Usually it is puss filled and drains on its own. This time it looks hard red and swollen but have been waiting for the puss but it hasn't come yet, she wouldn't even let us touch it. Have been applying hot compress and it looks like the boil got compressed. What could be the reason and why does it come so often.
