While building our house ( owner builders) some 26 years ago we all came down with boils:(...doctors couldn't find a reason for it but I have always wondered about the quality of water we were drinking and using being the first to build in the area. The water pipes in that area had been empty until we requested the mains be turned on.

This episode lasted well over a year with my middle child and myself affected most.

I hope your little one recovers quickly.....maybe some extra vitamin intake and vitamin e for healing.
