Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi. I understand your concern.
The treatment of a boil consist in antibiotics.
-Topical antibiotics such as creams or gels
-Oral antibiotics, try amoxicillin 500 mg for 7 to 14 days
-If the boil doesn’t go away its necessary to open up the abscess and drain the pus,so you should see a surgeon.
Hope my answer was helpful, if you have any other questions I'll be glad to help, thanks!
