Question: How long does it take to get a boil to get a head!?!?
Answers:
It depends on the boil, some only take a day some take several weeks!.When it becomes painful ,it's time to lance it!.Take a small (clean in alcohol) razor blade on gentely cut the top open!.Once it drains it will fell a lot better!.Wash it with warm soapy water 2-3 times daily!. I don't recomed piercing them with a needle as it only opens a small area and wont drain properly!.The corner of a raxor blade is suffcient !.You don't want a big hole , nor do you want a pin hole!.!.!.!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
put hot compresses on it!. if you have a heating pad!. wet a wash cloth and put it on the boil leave heating pad on it!. but careful when it pops b/c its really contagious and the puss and blood will run out so have dressings ready to put on it you dont want to get another oneWww@Answer-Health@Com
