stay and survival of boils causing bacteria. Your private area is moist,
warm, the skin is thin and it is hairy.
the moist nature of the area support the survival of the bacteria, the thin
nature allow these bacteria to easily penetrate the skin, the hairy nature house
the bacteria, and also the presence of hair follicle serve as an easy access
for the bacteria to get into your body.

early stage it won’t heal or sould I say the core will not come out , and it is
very painful, secondly if you squeeze boils it can cause the bacteria from your
hand to get into the boil, and can delay the healing of the boils and lastly , the pus coming from the boils can spread from
your hand to other part of your skin or be transferred to others through handshake , hugging etc.

terminal illness, in most patient it can go away on its own , if the condition
is not that favourable.
Boil is not a fatal
infection and therefore it cannot kill.
Can STD cause boils?
Sexually transmitted
infected are not the direct cause of
boils, infections, like HPV virus,
syphilis and human immune virus infection are not a direct cause of boils, but a patient suffering from any of these infection can easily get boils for the following reasons,
HPV virus and
syphilis come with symptoms like skin irritations, and these can create an opening on the skin
for the boils causing bacteria. Secondly human immune virus can cause these infection because it lowers the body
immune system and bacteria like staph can easily survive
and thrive because body defense mechanism to stop them is no longer there.
Secondly genital
piercing can also cause boils spread.
STDs create
conditions for staph bacteria to easily thrive and cause more infections.

method to remove a boils, ensure that the boil is already draining fluid,
Also do not squeeze
the bottle and do not use towel to clean the draining pus. This is to prevent
the spreading of the boils.
