Try the following effective home remedies for boils -
  • Apply warm water compress over the boils, this will help to ripen them and drain them quickly without pain. When a boil gets ripe and is ready burst squeeze it gently to drain the pus and clean the surrounding area to avoid spreading of the infection.
  • For faster healing apply calamine lotion or vitamin E cream over the boils.


    This will also help minimize the chances of getting marks caused due to boils.
  • Never scratch a boil. Apply aloe vera gel over the boils; this also helps in faster recovery.


  • Mix garlic juice and onion juice in equal proportions and apply it on the affected region. This remedy will also help to ripen and drain the boil.
  • Have a balanced meal and minimize the intake of coffee, tea, sugar, sweets, pickles, oily/fried foods, junk foods, processed foods and refined flour (maida based products).
