Anyway, it continued to get bigger and more uncomfortable and also started to redden so about 2 weeks after my first doctor visit I went to get a second opinion. This second doc told me that it was an infected hair gland and prescribed antibiotics. I've never been a fan of antibiotics but I was worried with how this problem was going, so I started taking them dutifully, 4 times a day.
They appeared to do nothing and the infection got much worse very quickly. It was now very uncomfortable, dark red, and about as big as a small plum. It also started weeping so I went back to the doctor as I had been instructed, and he expressed some puss from it and told me to keep it covered and keep taking the antibiotics. He also told me to book in with a surgeon in case it needed lancing, which I did.
Antibiotics doing nothing and not looking forward to the thought (and cost) of surgery, I started looking on the internet seriously. I found this website and read the turmeric solution (Honestly I thought, right. Turmeric powder, how is that going to help??). I figured I had nothing to lose, so on the way home I got some turmeric from the supermarket and some tea tree cream. That night I had a glass of water with a large teaspoon of turmeric powder in (tasted terrible!). I took a shower and poked around at the lump. It expressed a huge amount of chunky puss (made me feel rather ill). Cleaned it up and then went and lay on the floor in the lounge with a hot facecloth with tea tree oil on my back and a hot water bottle on that. after about an hour of that it had expressed still more puss. I cleaned it and had it bound with some of the tea tree cream as well and went to bed.
In the morning it had gone down by about 50% and was also less red and less painful. I was amazed. Expressed a lot more in the shower, had another drink of turmeric, and went to work. Same treatment in the evening (it was looking slightly better than it was in the morning), and then by the next morning it was looking much better. The skin about 3 inches all around the lump had been red and hard and was now not. Bump was almost totally gone and was only expressing slightly.
So basically, four glasses of water each with one generous teaspoon of turmeric powder in and I am almost entirely rid of a really unpleasant infection!
$150 on doctors visits and no cure vs $1.90 on a bottle of turmeric powder. I know which way I'll be going in the future! Thanks very much for the information. Absolutely amazing. :) I should have known better than to doubt. There's a natural cure out there for everything!

I have a tip on a 3-step external healing-process for a boil.
1) Use hot water to make the boil open,
2) Use baking soda to get rid of the infection and swelling (this is wonderful!), and
3) Use a mixture of turmeric and raw honey to accelerate wound healing.

1. By applying the juice of garlic or onion on the boil to draw it out.
2. By applying turmeric powder.
3. By applying a cumin seed paste.
Diet: Well-balanced, vegetarian, yogurt, boiled food.
Avoid: White wheat flour, all meat, tea & coffee, oily, spicy & sour food.
A pinch of turmeric is taken with a glass of warm milk before bed to treat dry cough. I guess turmeric powder could be taken this way or added to vegetable soup when boiling to make it easier to consume.
