Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi. Boils over face have to be treated with antibiotics as there is a small chanve that they may spread into the brain. Apart from oral antibiotics like Calmp kid I also give T Bact ointment over the boils twice daily for faster healing. Also I feel dettol soap is better until boils come down. Avoid scratching the boils as much as possible.

If they are not coming down in few days (at least they should not become more) , pls visit your doctor again.
