Alternative medicine

from:

Some people have found that these treatments help relieve discomfort and speed healing:

Herbs. Herbal teas such as dandelion and red clover are believed to help bacterial
infections. Ointments containing marshmallow or slippery elm may relieve
inflammation. Because herbs can interfere with other medications, be sure to talk to
your doctor before taking any herb internally.

Naturopathic therapy

Naturopathic practitioners usually recommend changes in the patient's diet as well
as applying herbal poultices to the infected area. The addition of zinc supplements
and vitamin A to the diet is reported to be effective in treating boils. The
application of a paste or poultice containing goldenseal (Hydrastis canadensis) root
is recommended by naturopaths on the grounds that goldenseal helps to kill bacteria
and reduce inflammation.

Homeopathy

Homeopaths maintain that taking the proper homeopathic medication in the first
stages of a boil or carbuncle will bring about early resolution of the infection and
prevent pus formation.

Homeopathic remedies for boils include belladonna, hepar sulphuris and silica. If
the boil has already formed, Mercurius vivus or Silica may be recommended to bring
the pus to a head. You can find them in many natural food stores.

Essential oils

These include essential oils of bergamot (Citrus bergamia), chamomile (Matricaria
recutita), lavender (Lavandula officinalis), and sage (Salvia officinalis), as well
as tea tree oil (Melaleuca spp.).

For best results, apply the oil to a boil several times a day. Most natural food stores and pharmacies carry essential oil products. The oil can cause allergic reactions in some people, so be sure to stop using it if you have any problems

Herbalists also recommend washing the skin with a mixture of goldenseal and witch hazel. To fight the inflammation associated with boils, herbalists suggest marsh mallow (Althaea officinalis) ointment, tinctures (herbal solutions made with alcohol) of blue flag (Iris versicolor) or myrrh
(Commiphora molmol), and slippery elm (Ulmus fulva) made into a poultice.

Because herbs can interfere with other medications, be sure to talk to your doctor before taking any herb internally.
