vickyjadia 		Boil is a skin disease. It is a localized infection in the skin which is caused by the infection of hair follicles. Staphylococcus aureus bacterium is responsible for the cause of boil. It starts as reddened tender area which after some time becomes hard and firm. The center of boils or abscess filled with the white cell that is called Pus. It is like lumps on the skin. The lancing a boil is technically a surgery. Small boils goes without any treatment but larger boils needs surgery. Surgeon drains the pus using any syringe or needle. Then after wound would be covered with the medicine and you have to use some antibiotics. Surgery is needed when abscess get larger than ½ inch across the area.
