Boils (furuncles) usually start as reddish or purplish, tender bumps . The bumps quickly fill with pus, growing larger and more painful until they rupture and drain. Areas most likely to be affected are the face, back of the neck, armpits, thighs and buttocks. You can usually care for a single boil at home.
