I have learned what causes my boils and it has nothing to do with keeping clean or tight clothes. It has to do with what I eat !! Start a food journal with a symptom journal. Its not easy to pinpoint but here are the foods that I've learned to avoid to keep the boils gone. First is peanuts and peanut butter. Second is coconuts. I can put coconut oil on my skin but if I eat anything with coconuts in it I will have boils by the next day. Yhird is almonds. Delicious slivered almonds on a healthy salad and by the next day I have several boils. Same with sunflower seeds which I lolove! If sunflower oil is an ingredient in something that I only eat a little of, then I will have a boil. Ugh. Cashews do it too, but they dont seem to be as painful. I hate to cut out foods that I love but it sure is nice being free of boils for the first time in over 30 years. Wish I could get this info to all boil sufferers.
