Answers:
You can apply a thing called a hot potise ( I dont think ive spelled it right !! ) .. Get a slice of bread cover it in boiling water then add some salt .. Leave it for a couple of seconds for the salt to soak in & then apply it as hot as you can for as long as you can to the boil.. It will bring the boil to a head & then it will burst.. It really works I used it on a nasty underarm boil & it was great

take the skin off of an egg shell and put it on the boil and leave it on over nite

My brother-in-law gets these all the time. Get one of these heat packs,that you throw in the microwave. Get it as hot as you can stand it and hold in on the boil until it's no longer hot. Do this as often as you have the patience to do it, even back to back. It will cause all the junk to come out. I know, he did it while we were at his house, it was disgusting!
