Greetings.
Recurrent boils would need anti botics / decolonisation regimes. have you seen a qualified dermatologist yet ?
Maintain measures of good hygiene/ wash clothes regularly/ avoid tight inner wear/ use Savlon or chlorhexidene solution - about 10 ml to your bucket of washing clothes. You may use antiinflammatory medicine for the pain and inflammation. hope this helps
