A boil looks like a huge pimple that sticks up through the skin. All the yucky stuff in a boil is held in by a thicker 'wall' of skin, which stops it from spreading at first. |  | Germs start an infection, often around the root of a hair. |
| This infection damages a few skin cells. |
| The body sends more blood and white blood cells (which work to kill germs) into the area around the boil. |
| Other cells swell up and the area becomes hot, red and sore. |
| The middle of the boil fills with pus (that yucky looking yellow stuff), which is made by the white blood cells trying to fight the germs. |
