Is A Boil On Buttocks While Having Heart Murmur A Cause For Concern?
My son has what appears to be a boil on his buttocks. We are treating it with warm compresses right now. He is 23 years old right now. He was diagnosed with and innocent murmur when he was around 8 years old. I saw online that you should seek medical attention if you have a heart murmur and a boil. Should I be concerned.

Hi dear
The answer is simply YES
simply because infection (eg. boil) with murmer should make us worried
about not have infective endocarditis
so i highly suggest that you have to consult your family physician for
management & followup please
