What Causes Boils On The Breasts And Upper Legs After Chemotherapy?

My last chemo and radiation was a year and a half ago and now I am getting boils on my breast and upper legs, after all this time. I have never had boils. They are large and red and hard and take a while to disappear and leave a scar when they do. The one on my breast oozed for some time before scarring.
