I have never been more amazed in my life. Several weeks ago I had two moles removed on my breasts. One was large and required stitches, the other was very tiny and under my breast. The large one healed beautifully, but wouldn't you know that the small one got infected. This teeny little thing the size of a pin point swelled to the size of a dime and got red, hot, painful and swollen. I've never had a sore that wouldn't heal before. I tried everything, alcohol, peroxide, antibiotic salve. Nothing seemed to help. I tried draining it several times, but nothing came out, and it only got worse. I thought maybe some kind of polstice might help, so I googled "natural remedy abscess" and found your site. I thought that this had to be too good to be true, but you weren't charging anything, so I thought I should try it. I went to my pantry and got the turmeric I use sometimes to make curry. Worst thing I ever tasted, but within two hours the sore started itching. Up to that point it had only hurt. By the next morning the sorness was gone, the redness was gone, the sore was half its previous size, and it had scabbed over. I didn't believe in miracles until now. I don't know what's in that stuff, but I'm telling everyone I know.

I told a close relative about tumeric as a treatment for boils. He works in a prison and is exposed to all manner of nastiness. He has suffered from boils for many years and was complaining about two more that were forming on his thigh. So I purchased tumeric capsules and told him to take 2 caps 3 times a day. A week later he called to thank me for the advise and said it worked better than anything the doctors had done for him. This site truly rocks!!!!!

I always get boils, nothing ever helps. Have had them all lanced (4). After getting the last one lanced, which hurt more than anything I have every experienced (it was on my bikini line were the fold is on my upper thigh) I now noticed that another boils appeared on the scar of the last one. I absolutely refuse to have anything ever lanced again. I found your website, don't know how. Bought Turmeric mixed it with plain water into a paste, applied it for 15 minutes. The next day it starting oozing, gross, but good news! No lancing required! I am so happy. Although I cannot stand the taste of it, I will be drinking plenty of it this week. Thanks so much, I am truly grateful to your website! Good luck everyone

i have had 2 boils since april. the first one i went to the hospital and had it lanced and packed with packing strip, which hurt like crazy. it come from switching my razor to a venus breeze..it caused my legs to get razor burnt, then i started getting these painful bumps on my shins. then one got huge and i couldn't barely walk. so, i went to the hospital and went thru hell. this time i got one, i don't know how, but it just pops up on the back of my leg. i was NOT going back to the hospital, so i looked home remedies up on the internet and found this website...which saved me from a whole lot more pain. i took a teaspoon of tumeric and put tea tree oil on it...and 2 days later...it's about gone! i also had some antibiotics (levaquin)...and hot baths work wonders for the pain...but only while your'e in the bath...but i am thankiN' God every day i found this website...

I had a very VERY painful boil at my groin and it was absolutely killing me. I could feel the infection growing and THROBBING. Someone told me to put Vick's Vapor Rub on it in order for it to open. So I did this. At the same time I went on the internet and found your site. I read all about Turmeric. I rushed out and got some. I put a heaping teaspoon in a drink and drank it that afternoon and that same evening (2 doses). When I woke up the next morning, my boil was half the size, NOT throbbing and draining. Your site is a life saver. Now I'm taking it for its anti inflammation properties and it is helping my arthritis. Thank you so much...

I read about the turmeric remedy in August 2007, and decided to try it. I went to GNC and purchase the turmeric capsules. I took 5 the first day, and 3 or 4 capsules days following for approximately 2 weeks and it is gone but a red flat place. I continue to take 2 a day so maybe the boils will not return. I also found the turmeric at Wal-Mart for only $6.00 or $7.00. That's alot cheaper then the health food store. Hope this helps someone to decide. I also took 3 tbs. of ACV (apple cider vinegar) and 2 tbs. of honey mixed in a small juice glass every morning for a couple of days. I refrigerate overnight. The next morning, get a small glass of water, hold your nose and drink the ACV (apple cider vinegar), and glass of water and you won't taste it at all. This does wonders.

Turmeric is a Miracle. Yes, Yes!! I have had suffering from boils for 3 years plus. A recurring one under my right arm (very painful) and several on buttocks. Went to a few doctors but nothing worked to stop them coming. Recently I read on this site and I gave a try to turmeric cure. I should ssy the results were surprising. Within days the presistent nasty boils started to heal and so far keeping on good consumption of turmeric they didn't came back. Alex

I read the testimonials and was convinced to try turmeric for a boil. I had just had one lanced and packed with gauze, and had to take a quadruple dose of antibiotics for ten days, despite which I still developed a fever from the infection. by the ninth day the packing strip was out and the incision was healing but the swelling and tenderness were coming back; either the same boil had a recess isolated from the initial drain or another one had formed in almost exactly the same place. when that boil was almost as big as the first one, and still no sign of coming to a head despite warm compresses daily, i tried drawing salve, to no effect. but it felt somewhat better after one dose of turmeric, and after one full day of taking it, the boil had almost disappeared. the pain is almost gone - only when i press in certain areas do i feel sore. the swelling is totally gone. however, the boil never did come to a head or drain so i am a bit concerned that it has not fully retreated. i am going to keep taking the turmeric and hope it continues to prevent future boils! as a side effect, i did experience diarrhea today. but i am hoping the anti-inflammatory properties will be able to help my colitis and eczema in the future - i wish i had known about this years ago! It's about the cheapest remedy you could ask for, if you buy in bulk. i have been mixing the turmeric with water and lemon juice, but i'm eager to try other ways. it has stained my toothbrush orange :)

I was looking online for a natural remedy for boils and came across your site with very little hope but to go the doctor. OMG!! I tried the turmeric powder in a glass of warm water 3x's a day and after the first day seen results. I have had this boil on the upper part of my gential area for about a month after suffering from a yeast infection. It has popped and drained 3x's and still would not heal until I started taking the Turmeric and using Neosporin ointment. This is great!! In the future I will look for a more natural healing process versus running straight to the doctor's office. Thanks again for giving me this option..

Checked this site for boil help and tried tumeric. It works just as the other posts indicated. After one day, pain and swelling subsides. After a few more days, newer boil gone, older stubborn boil 95 percent gone. I took capsules. Highly recommended.

I tried nearly everything to get rid of my boil but nothing worked like the combination of oatmeal, turmeric, salt and baking soda mixed with warm water. It cured a nasty boil I had under a cuticle in my pinky nail. I soaked my finger in it for 30 minutes and it want from swollen, red and throbbing to where I could almost touch it again in one treatment. I had tried everything else and read about those ingredients here and came up with that.. It WORKS! I also took 1/2 tsp of turmeric in some warm water and swallowed it down. Between the 2 it really worked. I will probably repeat the process 2-3 more times and I'm sure it will be totally gone. I noticed that I am susceptible to staph every month right before I begin my monthly cycle. I usually get a boil in my bottom or upper thigh, but I can cure it with a baking soda/water paste. This one on my finger cuticle was a first for me and lingered for 3 weeks til I found the oatmeal, warm water, salt, turmeric and baking soda paste. Like I said, I tried everything else and nothing worked like that!

i noticed i had yet another boil developing on my bottom and yesterday i took three servings of acidophilus (morning, noon, night) and last night drank 1 tsp of turmeric mixed with warm water. I also took a bath in which i added salt and tea tree and lavender oil. This morning I found that the boil had lessened in size and was less painful. I am continuing today with the same program. I am very excited with the results. this remedy keeps a boil from breaking the skin. I am forever grateful to those who supplied this info.

I've been suffering from monthly recurring boils for the past 6 months. Twice I've taken antibiotics and had the boils disappear, only to have them reappear a month or two later. This website was a blessing for me. I drank turmeric, took neem, and an Indian concoction called Safi. This did not make the boils disappear, but it made more stop from coming (before, without antibiotics, more boils would constantly emerge). I later bought Silver 100 from Invision International (seems to be the best one out there), and that has accelerated the healing process. I also had to eat yogurt, because of the detox-effect of silver. Yogurt happens to have acidophilus in it, which I've seen recommended here.

I have a tip on a 3-step external healing-process for a boil.
1) Use hot water to make the boil open,
2) Use baking soda to get rid of the infection and swelling (this is wonderful!), and
3) Use a mixture of turmeric and raw honey to accelerate wound healing.
