A member asked:

Is it okay to put bactroban (mupirocin) on a boil that's just forming (big and sore but no white and no pus/discharge)? will this help?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

NO: No harm. No help. If you have a boil, try hot soaks. When it drains, spontaneously or surgically, it will heal.
