Hi,

Thank you for your query on Healthcare Magic.

If you have not exposed to any sexual intercourse these boils are may be resulted from bacterial infections of skin which result in forming pustules or pyoderma.

If there is significant pus, it should be drained under aseptic precautions by a doctor.

If the lesions are small and few, local application of topical antibacterial cream like mupirocin thrice daily for 5 days is enough.

If the lesions are big and extensive, drainage of pus, oral antibiotics like cephalexin are required in addition to local antibiotic cream.

I advise you not to hesitate to inform your parents to inform.

Consult the doctor and get examined physically for the prescription of appropriate treatment for your problem.

Hope I have answered your query.

Regards.
