Boils

[Mark Rawlinson]

Is this something that can be a problem with diabetic men ?
Once again I have a boil starting in my groin, this has not happened for a long time but have had them there before (same place) and delightfully woke to one this morning
Will soon be usung the trusted Epsom salts paste to draw it

I think it can be an issue with men and women, It's usually high blood sugar weakening the immune system and they love to grow in skin folds and areas that sweat more than others. I get small ones very occasionally in that area. Hope it resolves itself soon.

A possible problem with diabetic people of either gender. I had these before any other symptom. Once I managed to lower my blood glucose (through diet) the problem never recurred.
