Boils
Posted: 03-11-04 07:59am

I have boils on my bottom and I have had them for more than 2 years that I have noticed. I'm only 15, and i'm too embarassed to tell my parents. Is there anything I can do to get rid of them. They don't go away for a long time and sometimes my friends play around and try to pull down my pants and thank god, but they haven't seen them yet! I am so worried someone is going to see them, but i'm too scared to tell my parents, what do you think I should do? Confused Thank you.

Hey hon gotta tell ya my husbands family has a history of this boil thing and I know its awful to live with, my suggestion is you need to tell your mom or aunt or someone that you have a little embarrassing problem they will understand. My thought is that you might need antibiotics to help clear this up, they do help!!! I have middle aged family dealing with this and they never sought help when they were younger. Maybe you can nip it now please talk to your Dr.!! Good luck!!

Thanks for the advice. I told my dad about my bottom and he made me show my stepmom. She said that it was probably a yeast infection so it's treatable. :d
