jen, this sorta sounds bacterial. has anyone drawn any liquid from one of these and sent it to a lab? you could have something running around inside that is causing the eruptions.

i had a coral cut once and after many doctor visits, i used a salve called "bag balm", which i know you can get in Texas.....at a co-operative or a feed store..or health food store..sometimes....it worked for the coral cut.

i know what kind of pain you're experiencing. i had a boil when i was 15. it hurt like all get out! i hope you get relief immediately!!!
