I am a 33-year-old female and frequently get large boils on my breasts. They are very painful and require me to break the skin to relieve the pressure. A large amount of puss expels and a deep hole is left. This takes about 3 weeks to heal afterwards. I started getting them seven years ago after my first child. Is this common?
