Natural Cure for Staph Infection or Boil
Staph infection is one of the most common skin infections that results in the formation of boils on the skin. This skin condition needs to be treated before it gets aggravated. These boils occur when the bacterium Staphylococcus invades through a microscopic cut in the skin. After invading the skin, this bacterium infects oil glands or hair follicles and results in the formation of boils. Further when white blood cells are sent to kill this bacterium, it produces pus in the boils.
You can effectively treat boil or staph infection by the following natural remedies and cures:
- Warm compress is the best natural treatment for boil or staph infection. Heat helps in draining and healing the boils.
- Make a habit of cleaning, moisturizing and exfoliating your skin on a regular basis. This will prevent formation of boils if you are prone to it.
- Take showers to avoid any kind of infection that can be transferred when the boil you have is draining. Taking a shower will help you prevent spread of infection to other body parts.
- Soak bread in warm milk and apply it directly over the infected boil. This is a traditional cure for treating boil.
- You can even try compresses of raw onion, mashed garlic and heated tomato to get rid of the infected boils.
