I will bring up the possibility of a pilonidal cyst the next time I go to the doctor. I'm not thinking that is what I have since the location is different but hey, ya never know! Doc refers to "the boils" as recurrent abscesses from bacteria that is dormant in my skin cells. This latest one has abated, thank goodness!
