Hi
Thanks for posting on your query on HCM
I have read and understood your concern.Sorry to hear you have a boil.
A boil or abscess is a collection of pus that has built up within the tissue of the body usually of bacterial origin.
Any Doctor may help help to treat your boil.If already collected, you see your primary care Doctor or a Surgeon for incision and drainage.Your Doctor will also prescribe a course of antibiotics like a penicillin or a cephalosporin and a pain/anti-inflammatory drug like ibuprofen.
Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns.
Wish you good health
