Hi there...
I just received this Query in my 📥
The pic is clear and it looks like some sort of Folliculitis with a pustule if we go with your history of it being seen or present only this morning.
Slight pain is par for the course.
Has this happened earlier?
Was there any sexual contact or exposure in the last few days leading up to this boil?
Does anyone else in your contacts have any itch or is there any itching in these areas?
It could well be an insect bite reaction if the answer to all the above questions is in the negative
A little hot water fermentation may cause it to burst and when the pus is released it may resolve on its own.
However if the answer to any of my above questions is in the affirmative then some blood tests etc may be required and some intervention via antiviral or antibacterial tabs and a prescription will be required.
