3 year old & boil

[Danielle_NZ]

When I had a boil I was told not to pop it as you can kind of collapse it inward. So I was given a plaster with some ointment that drew it out and eventually it erupted by itself. It was a few years ago though so maybe the advise has changed now. I feel for her though - they can be so sore!

The doctor advised that I pop it, I was actually hoping she would have done it this morning. If it's still whole in the morning I will go back and ask the doctor to sort it.

Dr advised me exactly the same thing. Must be the recommended thing these days. Did you try a bath tonight?
