Could The Nausea And Constipation Be Related To Boils On The Buttocks And Thighs?

Hallo, My name is Magda and I am 39. For about 2 years I have boils on buttocks and thighs (one week tetracycline treatment and antibacterial washes did not work), nausea and bloating often, sleepiness during a day, sometimes constipation. Is any connection between those symptoms, should I be concern? Thank you

Hello,

Repeated boils may be due to secondary infection due to poor hygiene or excessive sweating or immunosuppression or allergy of skin etc.

Yes, recent studies have shown that irritable bowel syndrome or leaking gut syndrome may cause this symptom.

Avoid caffeinated drinks and alcohol. Use tablet amoxiclav 625 mg twice a day for five days.

Bath two times in a day. Wear a soft cotton dress. If symptoms not improved please consult your physician/dermatologist he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care
