Can I put clorox on my skin boil?
Question:
Answers:
No, the infection is under the skin.Clorox could easily burn the skin and not even reach the infection. You could try a drawing salve like Epsal ointment (from epsom salts), or Icthammol ointment or epsom salts soak in water and epsom salts. But it could be some really bad germ like MRSA or another bad germ. Best to get it lanced by a doctor and get an antibiotic for it.
If you can't afford a doctor, call your nearest public health department for information on free or low cost clinics...or go to the ER and make payments (but that will be about a $1500 bill or more).
windex
Um...try just the hot water
Bleach is not good for your skin
Maybe add some Epsom salts to the hot water
mmmm. let me brainstorm and find someone with a boil
go to a doctor, dumbass. do not put bleach on your skin.
I would go see a doctor, chances are what you think is just a boil is a staph infection. Staph is a very nasty bacterial infection that needs medical attention with powerful antibiotics. You risk getting a limb or digit amputated if that is what it is and it gets too bad. Don't wait, better to be safe than sorry...
absulutely not. Hot water compress is the best to bring it to a head. And don't try to pop it yourself. your best bet is to go to a dermatologist. Trust me..i''ve had lots of boils and that is the only way to go. Good luck. I know it must hurt.
i dont think so, i get boils all the time. I have only just researched this and it says hot packs for 10 mins everyday or Bathe it in hot water with epson salts this will bring out the boil. But do not pop it as this will make it spread. If it is a large boil you might want to consult your doctor.
