Boils can be treated with ichthyol ointment and mupirocin ointment, and once an abscess forms, surgical incision and drainage. Boils, which are acute purulent infections of individual hair follicles and their surrounding tissues, are predominantly Staphylococcus aureus infections. Commonly used ointments include: 1. ichthyolite ointment, an acridine derivative with antiseptic, decongestive, and antiseptic properties, is used in the treatment of boils to concentrate pus and promote abscess maturation. 2. mupirocin ointment, which is a topical antibacterial medicated ointment that has the ability to kill and inhibit bacterial growth, is mainly used for skin infections. If the boil forms a white pus spot or abscess, go to the hospital in time for surgical incision and drainage, povidone-iodine gauze drainage, and change the medicine every day for treatment.
