A boil is a specific type of infection of a hair follicle, with a necrotic center and pus around it. Not all pus-containing superficial infections are boils. Squeezing such a lesion (a boil) before it is ripe can lead to bacteremia, because the pus gets in the blood, and is not recommended. Waiting until it is ripe and it empties itself spontaneously to the outside is recommended.
If opening is considered, it is better to use the knife than pressure as the means to do it.
So, in general, no, don't pop a boil. yes as they can then become infected, it is better (If you can) to leave them alone and let them pop naturally.
