Painful boils.
I've been getting small boils on my butt which are paining too. They have a yellowish tip. They are increasing in size and numbers.
I'm a chain smoker and have been taking alcohol a lot lately and having lots of non-veg food. Is it because of that? Please guide me with the treatment and what precautions should I take.
