A member asked:
Why is my boil itchy? it has drained so the itchiness does it mean that it is healing and what should i do for the itching?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Benedryl cream: Boils itch. If it is swelling up again, it may need to be drained again. Benedryl cream (unless you are allergic to it) should help.
