I get boils every so often on the outer labia of my lady parts. They always go away after a few weeks.
This time, its been here for about 2 days, and its large. But it HURTS this time. I guess its in a bad spot or something but if I sit wrong it hurts, if I move wrong it hurts. And it rubs :(

Anything I can do to help this? Its not large enough to be concerned with needing it lanced (ive had one lanced before yuck!)

First go to a health food store and get a small bottle of tea tree oil. Dip a q-tip in the bottle and dab it on the boil. Don't do it more than once cause this stuff is strong. If it's too strong for you then the next time you do it, wet the q-tip with water first to dilute it a little.

The boil should start reducing within 12-24 hours. If it's still large after 12 hours then do it again. I found in the past that once in the morning and once more 24 hours later was all that was needed.

After you've done this, go check out Hidradenitis suppurativa - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hidradenitis_suppurativa)

Good luck!
