What causes skin boils to form on the body and burst open?
Hello,
I see you are asking "What are the causes for boils (skin abscesses)?"
Most boils are caused by Staphylococcus aureus, a type of bacterium commonly found on the skin and inside the nose. A bump forms as pus collects under the skin. Boils sometimes develop at sites where the skin has been broken by a small injury or an insect bite, which gives the bacteria easy entry.

Yes, everyone/animal does. If the body's immune system is down and exposure turns into an infection, (strept throat is easily cured with a gargle of 1/8 tsp of cayenne - MRSA with turmeric/baking soda paste with a turmeric capsule taken internally as a kicker), herbal products will not mess up the body's natural flora like antibiotics will.

became involved and I have been on antibiotics for 6 wks, Dr. still doesn't believe
the splinter story, but it's my body and I know whats in there, so, hopefully soon they will all be out. Whatever, don't pick at it or it will spread and that is aweful. Good luck.
It is a red, pus-filled lumps that are warm and tender to the touch. It is caused by the inflammation of hair follicles. Yellow or white dots are seen in the center of the lumps which are ready to discharge the pus inside them
That is so gross
