Recurring Boils
I've been having boils in several areas in my body for a month now. I thought when one drains and gets well, it will not appear again. But boils just keep appearing after one gets well. Last week, I had a boil near my bikini line/pubic area. I just let it heal naturally by doing some hot compresses until one day, it drained and got to healing after a week. But while it was healing, another one shows up. So, as of today, I have two boils near the same area. And it's really alarming.
