Self care advice: Most boils get better without the need for medical treatment. One of the best ways to speed up healing is to apply a warm, moist face cloth to the boil for 10-20 minutes, three or four times a day. The heat increases the amount of blood circulating around the boil, which sends more infection-fighting white blood cells to the area. When the boil bursts, cover it with sterile gauze or a dressing to prevent the spread of infection. Afterwards, wash your hands thoroughly using hot water and soap. Never squeeze or pierce a boil because it could spread the infection. You can use over-the-counter painkillers, such as paracetamol or ibuprofen, to help relieve any pain caused by the boil.
