Boils start as small, red painful modules, but can really be ugly when they increase in size. Check out some home remedies for boils:
Neem: Grind a handful of neem leaves to make a paste and apply on the affected area. You could also boil neem leaves in water until the quantity of water reduces to one-third. Use this water to rinse the affected areas with it.
Garlic: Garlic is excellent for treating boils. You can apply the juice of garlic on the boil to kill the germs causing it and also to release the pus and treat the infection.
Milk Cream: Mix a teaspoon of milk cream with vinegar and some turmeric powder and apply it directly on the boil.
Cumin Seeds: Another effective paste to treat boils can be made by soaking cumin powder seeds in water. Apply this paste on the boil.
Onion: Take a thick slice of onion and place it on the boil. Wrap it with a cloth so that the heat generated from the onion can do magic. Repeat 3to4 times a day.
