How to dry up a boil on the body

Sometimes we end up having boils on the body which come up for no apparent reason. They are slightly painful, red and might even be starting some pus formation. Here is an easy method that has worked.

CARE : THIS HAS NOT BEEN TRIED ON THE FACE.

Anyway, for the body, take some dry turmeric powder - haldi - in a small bowl, say quarter to half a teaspoon. Add some water - say 1-2 teaspoons - experiment on the amount / consistency as you go along. Take a bit of cotton wool, dip this into the turmeric  paste / water, and apply directly to the boil. Remove the cotton wool and let the area air dry.

Repeat during the day - say four to five times. And hey - presto, you should find that the boil has dried up.

Do let me know if this works for you.
