Dear Doctor, Past 3 months I am having recurrent boils on my face and chest. The ones on chest are similar to folliculitis but those on face are bigger like boils. I have taken antibiotic course (Azithromycin 500 mg and Sefdin 300 mg) as prescribed by a Dermatologist. Using anti-bacterial soap (Soapex classic bar) and mupirocin ointment 2% (Mupon) but things are not improving. I am 49 years old male and non-diabetic. Kindly advise for a quick remedy.

Your skin is getting oily so reduce your intake of fats and keep your skin clean and dry. Take plenty of water and citrus fruits. Such recurrent tendency can be easily treated with homeo med.
