When you don't know how to get rid of skin problems, they can be not only irritating and possibly painful, but also embarrassing. Boils, in particular, can be painful! A boil is a small eruption on the skin, and it can appear almost anywhere on the human body. If you are suffering from a boil and would like to try a home remedy, continue reading.
The main thing to keep in mind with a boil is that if it bursts it can result in an unsightly scar. To prevent the boil from bursting, you will need to wait about two weeks for the boil to heal and go away on its own. However, there are some natural remedies you can try to speed the process up, without resorting to chemicals or squeezing.
1. Make a paste out of boiling water and cornmeal. The paste should be applied directly to the boil and then covered with a clean, dry cloth. The paste should then be reapplied every two hours until the boil comes to a head and drains out.
2. Using a warm cup as a suction pump, place it over the affected area and pump it to increase the blood circulation into the boil. This will also force the boil to a head and allow the infected pus to flow out.
3. Bacon can be rolled in salt, wrapped in a cloth and placed on the boil. The fat from the bacon will mix with the salt, causing the boil to come to a head and helping it to heal faster.
These home remedies can be used to treat boils without pain and irritation, and avoiding the possibility of the boil erupting and leaving a scar.About the Author:
