Boils Part 2 (Teacher: Michael)
Traditionally it is often thought that boils need to be covered with special pastes in order to draw them. Personally, I think that
Select
The
the
A
a
only useful and necessary treatment is warmth. Put
Select
The
the
A
a
wrapped hot water bottle over
Select
The
the
A
a
dressed boil, and not only will
Select
The
the
A
a
boil be encouraged to burst, but
Select
The
the
A
a
pain will be relieved. Once
Select
The
the
A
a
boil has burst, all you need to do is change
Select
The
the
A
a
dressing, being careful to burn each old dressing as quickly as you can, and to wash
Select
The
the
A
a
skin round
Select
The
the
A
a
boil with soapy water, or water into which
Select
The
the
A
a
little antiseptic has been poured. Boils are very infectious. They are made up of bacteria and dead cells.
If someone in your family suffers from recurrent boils, then it is possible that one member of
Select
The
the
A
a
family is acting as
Select
The
the
A
a
carrier.
Select
The
the
A
a
nose swab from each member of
Select
The
the
A
a
family is usually
Select
The
the
A
a
good idea.
Select
The
the
A
a
organisms responsible for boils often live in
Select
The
the
A
a
nostrils. Anyone who gets lots of boils should have his urine tested for sugar, since diabetes is
Select
The
the
A
a
condition which can make
Select
The
the
A
a
development of boils more likely.
Get medical advice about
Select
The
the
A
a
boil if it is very large or very painful, or doesn't look like bursting itself. You should also see
Select
The
the
A
a
doctor if red lines appear on
Select
The
the
A
a
skin around
Select
The
the
A
a
boil, since these may suggest that
Select
The
the
A
a
infection is spreading.
