Boils On Skin
My Nephew has boils. Earlier we gave him Amoxicillin for 5 Days after that for two weeks he didn't get any boils. After that now since 4 days he is getting boils now. Typically one or two at the same time but once one of them is getting shrunk another one pops up. I think that he has some sort of allergies but not sure which medication I should give.
