Guest guest Posted March 22, 2011 Report Share Posted March 22, 2011 Hi all. This is an off topic request for any help with dealing with staph boils. After having my tonsils out last May I developed a very tiny but very painful red spot on my knee that turned out to be a staph boil that went into an abcess. I did go to the Doctor to confirm that it wasn't a spider bite. At that time he wanted to put me on a heavy duty antibiotic for 30 days to rid my system of the infection. I declined because by the time I got in to see him I had been treating the abcess myself with a combination of bentonite clay and goldenseal powder kept on the open sore 24 hours a day and it was working! However 1 month later I had 2 spots show up on the other knee and immediately started the anti-biotic and had no trouble with those abcessing or any trouble at all until Saturday. Now I have another boil on the knee and it is starting to abcess. Does anyone have any ideas for me? I have come so far in my gut health that I really don't want to go back down the road of anti-biotics if I don't have too. Thanks in advance!
