Turmeric for Boils: Top Natural Remedy for Fast Healing

I read about the turmeric remedy in August 2007, and decided to try it. I went to GNC and purchase the turmeric capsules. I took 5 the first day, and 3 or 4 capsules days following for approximately 2 weeks and it is gone but a red flat place. I continue to take 2 a day so maybe the boils will not return. I also found the turmeric at Wal-Mart for only $6.00 or $7.00. That's alot cheaper then the health food store. Hope this helps someone to decide. I also took 3 tbs. of ACV (apple cider vinegar) and 2 tbs. of honey mixed in a small juice glass every morning for a couple of days. I refrigerate overnight. The next morning, get a small glass of water, hold your nose and drink the ACV (apple cider vinegar), and glass of water and you won't taste it at all. This does wonders.

I read alot about how Turmeric can cure a boil so I went and purchased a bottle of 400 MG of Turmeric for $12.00. I took two a day for a week and it did nothing! My boils are worse. My one boil went from 1 to 5 now. Did I add they are larger now? I also tried Castor Oil treatments and Ichmathol. Ichmathol did bring one boil to a head and it did drain but it didn't touch the other ones. I do seem worse since I took Turmeric. I say contact your DR. for any kind of swollen lymph nodes because this can be fatal!

summer I began getting boils, first a large carbuncle on my left hip which was a series of 7 (!) boils, I went to the doctor for two rounds of antibiotics. I got three more, each lower than the last down my leg, and after the last one on my knee found this site and started taking the turmeric. I haven't had one for a month, but a few days ago i got another one, this time on the right side of my ribcage. I have been taking turmeric, putting tea tree oil and neosporin on it, and it is definitely way smaller and less painful than the others, but still a boil. I am so frustrated, but have not gone back to the doctor for antibiotics this time. I am hoping it will go away quickly, but it appears to have gotten stlightly worse, although not golf ball sized. I plan to keep up with the turmeric and direct applications and will see how long it takes. Any futher suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Tumeric is a disappointing herb to me i have a boil and the infection type is bacillus species i took the powder form three times a day in warm water, it has done nothing for me everyone else says its good and stuff but tumeric did nothing for me i still have this boil and its been 2 weeks so far taking the tumeric i'm very aggravated.

I had a very VERY painful boil at my groin and it was absolutely killing me. I could feel the infection growing and THROBBING. Someone told me to put Vick's Vapor Rub on it in order for it to open. So I did this. At the same time I went on the internet and found your site. I read all about Turmeric. I rushed out and got some. I put a heaping teaspoon in a drink and drank it that afternoon and that same evening (2 doses). When I woke up the next morning, my boil was half the size, NOT throbbing and draining. Your site is a life saver. Now I'm taking it for its anti inflammation properties and it is helping my arthritis. Thank you so much...

i have had 2 boils since april. the first one i went to the hospital and had it lanced and packed with packing strip, which hurt like crazy. it come from switching my razor to a venus breeze..it caused my legs to get razor burnt, then i started getting these painful bumps on my shins. then one got huge and i couldn't barely walk. so, i went to the hospital and went thru hell. this time i got one, i don't know how, but it just pops up on the back of my leg. i was NOT going back to the hospital, so i looked home remedies up on the internet and found this website...which saved me from a whole lot more pain. i took a teaspoon of tumeric and put tea tree oil on it...and 2 days later...it's about gone! i also had some antibiotics (levaquin)...and hot baths work wonders for the pain...but only while your'e in the bath...but i am thankiN' God every day i found this website...

I always get boils, nothing ever helps. Have had them all lanced (4). After getting the last one lanced, which hurt more than anything I have every experienced (it was on my bikini line were the fold is on my upper thigh) I now noticed that another boils appeared on the scar of the last one. I absolutely refuse to have anything ever lanced again. I found your website, don't know how. Bought Turmeric mixed it with plain water into a paste, applied it for 15 minutes. The next day it starting oozing, gross, but good news! No lancing required! I am so happy. Although I cannot stand the taste of it, I will be drinking plenty of it this week. Thanks so much, I am truly grateful to your website! Good luck everyone

WORKED TEMPORARILY

Turmeric is great in the beginning for boils, But, please note that it does take more doses more frequently once they continue to come back in time !I have been getting them 2004 and each summer they get harder and harder to treat ! The first year they were surgically removed because they were so deep and also treated with an antibiotic called Minocycline. This helped temporarily, but once when I was out of town on a weekend, and unable to find medical attention, I tried the turmeric cure from this site. It was miraculous for about 9 mos., but then they came back the next summer extremely aggressive !! It took me larger doses,(2 heaping tablespoons 3 times daily), and they were taking longer to heal, or would just stay down in size without going away for weeks. That much turmeric will have your stomach feeling quite sick along with diarhia !! I finally went back to the doctor and back on the Minocycline, but it also took longer than the last time using it to clear up the staph infection. My son is almost 4, and he too suffers with them, but his immune system is much stronger than mine. He is autistic and the taste of the turmeric will make him vomit, so when he gets one coming out, I just cook something for him with the turmeric in it ! Preferably something in red gravy, (like spagetti & meat sauce). He has never been on antibiotics and I'm trying to keep it that way, but as soon as the turmeric cures one of his boils, another one surfaces in another place on his little body. The doctor told me that it is getting so out-of-hand that pretty soon there will be nothing they can do for it. He told me that the staph that is out there now is a product from our own modern medicine - a combination of many antibiotics produced that have built up a resistency and immunity to everything they have to fight it. It is a growing and most aggresive bacteria that becomes increasingly immune to anything. Sorry to say it, but he may very well be right. I wish the turmeric would continue to work for me, but the staph is starting to get immune to it as well. Any other suggestions would be greatly appreciated !!

I told a close relative about tumeric as a treatment for boils. He works in a prison and is exposed to all manner of nastiness. He has suffered from boils for many years and was complaining about two more that were forming on his thigh. So I purchased tumeric capsules and told him to take 2 caps 3 times a day. A week later he called to thank me for the advise and said it worked better than anything the doctors had done for him. This site truly rocks!!!!!

I have never been more amazed in my life. Several weeks ago I had two moles removed on my breasts. One was large and required stitches, the other was very tiny and under my breast. The large one healed beautifully, but wouldn't you know that the small one got infected. This teeny little thing the size of a pin point swelled to the size of a dime and got red, hot, painful and swollen. I've never had a sore that wouldn't heal before. I tried everything, alcohol, peroxide, antibiotic salve. Nothing seemed to help. I tried draining it several times, but nothing came out, and it only got worse. I thought maybe some kind of polstice might help, so I googled "natural remedy abscess" and found your site. I thought that this had to be too good to be true, but you weren't charging anything, so I thought I should try it. I went to my pantry and got the turmeric I use sometimes to make curry. Worst thing I ever tasted, but within two hours the sore started itching. Up to that point it had only hurt. By the next morning the sorness was gone, the redness was gone, the sore was half its previous size, and it had scabbed over. I didn't believe in miracles until now. I don't know what's in that stuff, but I'm telling everyone I know.

I developed a small red area on my abdomen that grew into a boil type area. I attempted to lance it and made matters worse. After pushing on it, I developed an area the size of my hand that became red and warm to the touch. The boil area grew to a large grape sized area. It was becoming very painful. It had a yellowish green plug that I couldn't remove. I put charcoal on it several times. After about 1 week I was getting really worried and knew I was developing a serious problem. I love this site and found the turmeric remedy. The plug came out just prior to using the turmeric. The plug was the size of a pencil eraser and the whole was at least an inch deep and an inch in diameter. I figured I would give the turmeric a day or two before going to the doctors. I put charcoal again on the area hopping to draw any remaining poisons from it and took two self filled 00 capsules of turmeric. I was amazed even after that first dose. It has been less then a week and it is almost completely gone. I am not sure if it was a spider bite or a boil but as a nurse I have never seen a wound heal so quickly.

Turmeric really works! My boil felt 100% better within 48 hours and was total gone in 1 week. I was taking Turmeric Capsules (3X day) for one week.

I can't say WOW enough. Turmeric worked wonders for my boil. I had boils as a child but had not had any more until last year, 2006. It lasted a month and I still have a scar and discolored skin on my nose from it. One year later, here it came again. It had been raining for 3 days and I had been at the hospital for a mamogram. Within about 8 hours of leaving the hospital the overwelming pain began. There was no doubt in my mind as to what was happening. I was spiritually led to your web site and read about Turmeric. I couldn't buy any that night and suffered greatly. By morning my nose was red and swollen and so sore. I got some Turmeric capsules right away. Within 4 hours the pain began subsiding and now after 48 hours the boil is gone !!! THANK YOU Is there any harm in my continuing to take Turmeric once a day? I'm afraid to quit.

Okay, at the age of 55 never in my life had a boil and couldn't understand what the fuss was about. Recently developed two boils under my right arm pit and was able to cure one of them which was the size of an olive. This second one, the size of a pea seemed to have a mind all of its own and no matter what I tried, such as toothpaste, hydrogen peroxide, witch hazel, campho-phenique, Draw Out Salve, Neosporin, aspirin made into a paste and applied, you name it didn't work. Finally after reading on your website about Tumeric, I went to GNC here in Westwood, California and bought a jar for $16 and popped two 400mg pills. This morning the agonizing pain that I've had for about two weeks now with this little monster the size of a pea, improved! I'm going to continue taking one tablet a day for the rest of my life. I never realized how painful a boil could be and hope I never experience it again. Will keep you posted Laura

Last week i had a huge boil on my left inner thigh. It had been growing for several days. Hurt so bad I went to a dermatologist's office but they could not see me for several weeks. I was told to go to urgent care. That same day I found this website. Read about turmeric and was so eager to try it I left work early and drove to a health food store. Bought some in capsule form, maybe 430mgs? Took it twice a day and within 3 days the boil was gone. Got some relief in the first night. Was amazed and so grateful it worked. I will keep some on hand forever as these thigh bolis have cursed me for years. THANK YOU TURMERIC.
