question: Hello doctor, My daughter is around 2.9 years old. She was fine until four months back. Three months back, she got a small boil near her buttocks, so we went to our pediatrician. The doctor gave some tablets, and the boil got healed well. Again last month, she got another small boil on her buttock, then our doctor told this is due to broken skin. He said that broken skin could give repeated boils. She got another small boil yesterday, which seems to heal with prescribed medicines and gel. But I want a permanent solution for this boils issue. What can be done? So far, she has got four such boils. All the boils were small, and they healed with medicines. Are such recurrent boils normal for kids her age?
