Boils are one of the most common skin disorders that everyone has encountered. Some of the most common places where we get affected by boils are the face, armpit and throat. However, there are a few among us that have boils on our thighs and buttocks. Those who have had boils in these two parts of the body can assure you the discomfort caused. Boils might appear to be small and inconspicuous; however, they sometimes cause anxiety. Before we know how to get rid of boils, lets first learn what boils are and how they are caused.

Boils – The Science Behind Them:

Boils are essentially a skin infection, which starts in the oil gland or a hair follicle that is embedded in the skin. They are otherwise known as skin abscess. This is caused by a bacterium, Staphylococcus aureus, which resides in our body. The bacterium enters the body through skin lesions.

Now that you know what causes boils, let’s take a look at the reasons why they are caused:

• Damaged hair follicles.

• Excessive scratching with infected fingers and nails.

• Sharing toiletries.

• Weakened immune system.

• Waxing or shaving.

• Allergic reactions.

• Excessive sweating which in turn leads to accumulation of dirt.

• Fabric allergic reaction.

• Recurrent rubbing of thighs.

• Irregular nutrition.

• Poor hygiene.

• Stress and overexertion.

• Infected lymph node.

Boils not only cause displeasure but are also harmful if left untreated. Although starting out as harmless bumps, they often intensify rapidly. Contrary to popular belief, boils are not restricted to the usual parts of the body i.e. face, armpits, inner thighs, buttocks, groin and scalp. They are not constrained to just these areas of the body, but to any part of the body that has hair follicles.

More often than not, boils do land up in the most private of places, especially the groin. As the groin is naturally filled with hair follicles, it is more susceptible for the boil to lead to jock-itch.

Tips on how to get rid of boils on Inner Thighs and Buttocks:

The following are some home remedies that would help you in getting rid of boils:

1. Heat:

Applying heat to the boil during its initial stages will reduce its growth remarkably. Heat effectively increases blood circulation around the boil. By doing so, you enable your natural antibodies with the help of white blood cells to ward off the infection and pus inside. Practice the same for two or three days depending on the size of the boil. Usually at this time the pus drains out. Once all the pus is out, wash the area with antibacterial soap and let it dry. If you do want to keep the boil open, put a bandage on it.

2. Turmeric Paste:

Turmeric has many medicinal qualities. To make the most out of the turmeric powder, mix it with Epsom salt and honey along with castor oil and iodine. Apply this paste on the boil which would make the pus drain out.

3. Goldenseal:

Take some goldenseal root powder and add water and mix it so that it forms a paste. Apply the paste on the affected area.

4. Water:

Consuming lots of water will reduce the intensity of the boil. Have at least 8-10 glasses of water every day. This would help in flushing the toxins out of the body.

5. Onion:

Onions have the best antiseptic properties when compared to other vegetables. This veggie helps in speeding up the healing process. All you have to do it cut an onion into thick slices and place them on the boil. Wrap it with the help of a cloth. The important bit here to change the slices every 2-3 hours!

Note: Never try to puncture a boil. This will aggravate the condition leading to swelling or increasing the intensity of boils.

These are the top five home remedies for getting rid of boils on inner thighs and buttocks. Hope these prove to be essential in the hour of need.
