Suggest Treatment For Boils In The Temple Area
Hi I have recently come out with 4-5 boils just on the temples of my face, it was strange as I first noticed a few week back loads of little spots under the temples of my skin and now they have turned in to 4-5 big boil spots, I ve never had spots in this area of my face (temples) can you please help?

Hello,
The boils are related to an infection of the hair follicle. I recommend to use warm compresses to help drain the boil. I also suggest to use an antibiotic cream for local application. I suggest to maintain a good hygiene and avoid touching the boils which can make them worse.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
