How Can Boils In The Under Arm Be Treated?

Wonderful ! Thank You ! Am 70. F, 5 , have diabetes, succumbed to mangoes 3 days, BS zoomed up, 130 t0 180. 2 boils under skin of underarm. Local doc prescribed Clavam 625, 3 tabs/day the last time I had a boil. Another site says 2 tabs/day ok. Please advise : With/before/after meals ? For how many days ? God bless you. Will tell all pals about you. Will msg you again. This is real charity.
