If this is a serious problem for you, why on earth would you ask on this site?  Would you really follow advice from someone like me.  I know me and I wouldn't.  \n\nIf you are not happy with your doctor's advice (or lack thereof) get a second, third or even fourth opinion.  You can also try www.nih.gov and check out germane clinical studies.  But don't try to self-diagnose.\n\nIt is entirely possible that, due to the chronic overuse of antibiotics over the past 50 years, you have been infected by a bacteria that has become immune to antibiotics, in which case, there is little your local doctor is going to be able to do for you.  If there is one in your area, go to a teaching hospital.  If there is not, take the trip.  And make sure you are seen by a specialist in infectious diseases.\n\nHopefully you are smart enough to know to ignore the answers you will undoubtedly get that advise you to pray for a cure, or to give up because you are being punished by God.\n\nOr, do what my grandmother did.  Run around your front yard naked three times at 2:00 a.m. during the full moon while swinging a 3 week dead, unplucked chicken (yeah, it's fowl) over your head and chanting "Boil, boil, toil and trouble - I don't want to lance this bubble"  It might or might not help, but you'll meet your neighbors, and maybe your local police.  Grams married a really cute detective.\n\nGood luck.  (And don't eat the chicken)

Your description wasn't very detailed, but it could be a boil.  That is when a pimple like sore forms from an ingrown hair or a clogged sweat gland.  It is very common to find them in the groin area.  Search boils on google and you will find out if it could possibly be a boil.  If you don't think it is then you should see your doctor.\n\nGood Luck To You

I would say: see a doctor. however. I have had this before. and the doctor said its a bacteria caused by wearing new or long-time stored clothes because you have sensitive skin it's not dangerous and it  will go away eventually however he gave me some kind of cream to put on the spots it will get rid of them faster. and he also told me to wash every thing I buy from the stores b4 wearing it. \nif you have insurance. see the doctor

When I was a little girl I used to get boils often. My mother would get a washcloth and soak it in very hot water then cover the boil. She would do that several times. That seemed to make it go away. It would shrink under the heat.

It could just be irritation bumps or ingrown hair bumps. Their is a laser that could get rid of the bump in one shot.

Boils are associated with a strain of staph bacteria.  The infection occurs in places where you shave more often than other places because of minute nicks in the skin, so washing with an antibacterial soap before shaving and disinfecting a razor between uses can go a long way toward preventing reoccurrence of boils.  People who are unusually prone to boils should consider vitamin E and A supplements as well.

First and most importantly, don't pop the boil yourself. It could get infected and cause way more trouble than you're prepared to deal with. Boils, just like pimples, are the body's way of excreting toxins and waste through the skin. The appearance of a boil usually means that there are more toxins in your body than normal and they need to be expelled. You need to deal with this boil and then begin to naturally treat your body to avoid future eruptions. There are a couple of links below that may help you choose a homeopathic remedy but for IMMEDIATE relief, you might want to see a doctor so that they can lance the boil. But keep in mind that lancing boils is painful and because of the puncturing of the skin before the boil has completely matured will most likely cause the bacteria to be pushed deeper into the skin therefore ensuring that it will reappear, maybe with more boils to accompany it. So that being said, you need to be sure bring the boil to a head. The second link gives great advice about how to treat a boil. For future reference though, taking vitamins daily to boost your immune system (multivitamin, echinacea, vitamin C, and vitamin B complex), drinking lots of water, and healthy eating will help your body fight off infection and expel wastes in a healthier (and less painful) way. Good luck!

a boil is a painful, circumscribed pus-filled inflammation of the skin and subcutaneous tissue usually caused by a local staphylococcal infection, while a pimple is just a small inflamation of the skin caused by a bit of bacteria trapped undernearth the skin

PRID Drawing Salve.\n There is also over the counter Boil salves. \nIf the boil is small just leave it be and use heat therephy it should drain itself. No matter how bad it hurts as long as the boil is hard u won't get any relief trying to pop the thing.\n Once it becomes soft in the middle or forms a head u can pop it yourself and get instant relief. If the boil is a large boil you need to go to the docter and have them lance it for you.\n All it is, is a deep infection. To get it to soften an to rise the head onto it use heat packs or heating pads.

Most boils run their course within 4 to 10 days. For most people, self-care by applying a warm compress or soaking the boil in warm water can help alleviate the pain and hasten draining of the pus (colloquially called "bringing the boil to a head"). Once the boil drains, the area should be washed with antibacterial soap and bandaged well.\n\nFor recurring cases, supplement your diet with Vitamin A and E.\n\nFor serious cases, prescription oral antibiotics such as dicloxacillin (Dynapen) or cephalexin (Keflex), or topical antiboitics, are commonly used. For patients allergic to penicillin-based drugs erythromycin (E-base, Erycin) may also be used.

I would suggest seeing a doctor. I myself have had them before and was told that sometimes its genetics. You might want to make sure its not something serious, and yes they are painful, if you go to the dr they will drain the boil - NOW THAT HURTS. Warm baths will help them go away. I am a very clean person so I doubt my boil had anything to do with being dirty, but you might want to switch soaps or change detergents - and if you sweat a lot use powder.

With warm compresses and soaking it in warm water. It will burst with repeated soakings. When it starts draining, wash it with an antibacterial soap until all the pus is gone, and apply antibacteria ointment and a bandage. Wash the area 2-3 times daily and use warm compresses until the wound heals. Never pop the boil with a needle because it can make the infection worse. The best prevention is good hygiene. Good luck!
