Hello, Norman! How are you? I'm sorry about the problem that you're having.

Most boils are bacterial in nature and respond well to antibiotics. Some do well with topical ones, while for others a course of oral antibiotics might be required. They can cause side effects, such as nausea, dizziness, non-allergic skin rash and diarrhea.

Do you have a PCP you see regularly that you could consult for this? What have you already tried to treat them?
