HOT TEA
Anonymous in NJ U.S.A. -
A warm bath in Tea will help with a boil. It will also draw out other pimples and black heads. I used 5 Lipton Tea Bags in a hot bath for about 20 minutes and the the boil started to drain a few minutes after I got out.

Turmeric for boils
TAC in Frederick, MD -Tsp of turmeric in glass of water gets rid of boils...turmeric acts as a blood purifier and rids the skin of toxins that cause the boils. For big boils I also make a paste out of turmeric and baking soda and put on for about 5 minutes (don't leave on too long, turmeric is also used as a dye).

Tip from a elderly pharmacist
Marcia in NY -Besides being a delicious food, figs are also medicinally useful.
Cut in half and steeped for 2 or 3 minutes in hot water, the fig is good for applying to boils or abscesses.
The juice is good for a sore throat or cough, for digestive disturbances, and for tempoary constipation.
