You have black spots and the boils get bigger
People who contracted the Bubonic plague (the Black Death) got black buboes in their armpits and groin area before they died.
Because the bubonic plague (first to hit Britain) was when humans got boils, and the boils were BLACK. Because the Bubonic plague, (spread by fleas from infected rats), would cause the victim to receive boils, and blotches of skin that would turn black or blue. These are not boils but enlarged lymph nodes which became black (gangrenous).
You get black boils on your skin the shape of an orange.

yes, black death was spread in whole Europe. Russia also got black death.
The boils from the Black Death were not black per say, they were the usual blacky purple colour that you get from a heavy bruise (bleeding under the skin). They were hard, painful, burning lumps that usually appeared around the lympth nodes eg, neck, armpits, groin and thighs. Bubonic plague (Black Death) is an infection of the lymphatic system usually resulting from the bite of a flea (from rats in this case). As the disease progresses, the lymph nodes can hemorrhage and become swollen and necrotic (gangrene) hence why the boils are blacky purple to begin with, until they burst and ooze with puss and blood.
