Re: Boils

Thank you thank you thank you!

I thought it was just me and that it must somehow be a sign I wasn't washing enough (as if daily showers aren't enough - I was getting a little paranoid), or maybe I had some infection, or something, but ABSOLUTELY mortified to go to the Dr. about it - thank G-d my DH understands!

What I have found to work (at least cosmetically) is to wash with warm soapy water and use Bacitracin (which kills bacterial infections) then I dry completely and use Oxy-10 on the affected area - usually works to reduce big boils and prevent further ones -

Good luck to all, and please know that I (like many, I'm sure) read the blogs daily and take comfort in your words but don't contribute often - but the masses of women in support are more than you think!
