Hi Rakhi - I have heard of some type of antibiotic that you take regularly that will help the boils stop.  I've had a friend that suffered from them for years till this one dr gave her this medicine.  A boil is an infection that just grows and grows till pop, it burst and it is quite painful both before and after it bursts. In the meantime look in the aisle near the acne type soaps and there is an antibacterial bar soap that is blue (I forget the name) or this Noxzema acne product that has antibacterial agents in it and use one or the other when you shower. I can tell you that these products have done wonders for my cystic acne which is simular in nature to boils. I hope that they help you just the same.  Or ask your dr about Levaquin (?) it's an antibacterial type of antibiotic. Hope you can get some help for those boils and put a stop to them once and for all and not have to worry about lumps and cancer when it's just a boil. Good luck! Angi
