Hi. Greetings. Are you sure these are boils? Had there been any pus discharge anytime? It's not possible for me to diagnose this on the pictures you have sent. I world suggest you get examined by a dermatologist near you and discuss the treatment options according to the diagnosis made. If they are boils they'll need a course of anti biotics. Hope this helps. Warm regards .
