Brief Answer:
FUSIWAL
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
You can apply FUSIWAL ointment / BACTROBAN ointment over the boil.
Do not poke the boil or rupture it, let it take its own course of bursting. In case you can just wipe off with clean cotton and apply the same cream.
Do not use undergarments at night.
Keep the area dry.
Dry the area completely on both sides after bath especially.
to dry the area stay under the fan after bath.
Hope this is clear.
