I have 2 boils under my armpits, does it mean that my gp has to perform a minor surgery?

Yes: I would recommend you see your provider and he or she will likely lance the lesions. If these are in your armpit area the condition is call hidradenitis suppuritiva. If is not uncommon for this condition to return.
