I went to the gyno yesterday and this problem was one that I brought up. Although there is a fine difference between having absceses and boils, the boils are hereditary. My doctor told me to get some over the counter monsistat chaffing cream. It's a powdery gel that you smooth onto your thighs. She also told me that there is really nothing you can do to prevent it; however sunlight helps. She said sunlight exposure can greatly decrease the outbreaks. If there is an active one and it is painful and large she said to come see her because she could prescribe an antibiotic to help fight infection. It sucks because I was hoping there was a prescription out there to make these painful annoyances stop. (There is a name for the condition; however, it was a long weird word and I can't remember. It started with an "m")

I was reading this post and I have the same problem. I have this reddish pus filled thing in my pubic area it looks like a boil but I don't really know. It never goes away. It is painful and a pus or bloody substance comes out of it. It also has dark black spots on the top of it. I just wanted someone else's opinion. So thanks for the help.

I used to get them too (I can remember the first time in college thinking I had herpes and panicking!). I noticed, however, that I started getting them when I gained weight in college. Due to a combination of that and a generally low energy level I went on a diet, have lost 25 pounds, and no longer get them. My mom had them too; I think it's hereditory but at least for me losing weight helped greatly.
