Why Is My 6 Year Old Getting Boils On His Bum?

My 6 year old is getting boils on her bum and now one on her inner leg. When she was two she had surgery to get two drained (one was inside another one). That's when she was in diapers and that's what I thought is was from. I'm just not sure why she is still getting these when she is in underwear..
