I wish I knew the answer to this question because I'm going through the same thing. I have been using magnesium sulphate paste on a boil on my inner thigh for a week. I use it once everyday and I apply a generous blob on it and then I cover it with a bandaid. I heard that the paste works by absorbing the water from the boil, it actually absorbs water from the air. The bandaid is used to keep the paste in place and to prevent further infection/ spreading of the boil. I noticed that each night that I would remove the plaster, the boil seemed soft and larger. I dont understand how it is supposed to heal and get rid of the boil. I stopped the paste after approx 7 days because no pus seems to come out, just some blood. But I still cleaned it and put a plaste bacl on it. Tough skin covers it and it is pea sized but a bit painful.
I heard it takes a week to work and a week to heal? Please help. Should I continue to use the paste for another week or even two before seeing the Doctor? Perhaps I need antibiotics? Im 26 and first time is happened. I had an ingrown hair and it became infected. I think its still an ingrown hair which continues to be infected? Help

What is the correct blast media and pressure to bead blast pool tile?
The traditional method uses sand or glass beads. Some cleaning companies use a media that is softer than the tile to avoid damage to the surface. Specially processed sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) and hydrated magnesium sulphate (epson salts) are used quite frequently for cleaning pool tile without damaging the tile. Both of these products are not recyclable and are cleaned by dissolving in water. Care must be taken with sodium bicarbonate because it can damage landscaping if not used properly. Surface Renewal Pool Tile Cleaning uses both glass bead and magnesium sulfate to clean pool tile. You can not bead blast glass pool tile without etching so the use magnesium sulfate to clean glass pool tile is a must. On standard ceramic pool tile glass bead blasting is sufficient due to the high cost of using magnesium sulfate as long as it is done at a low pressure.
