A boil, also called a furuncle, is a deep folliculitis, infection of the hair follicle. It is most commonly caused by infection by the bacterium Staphylococcus aureus, resulting in a painful swollen area on the skin caused by an accumulation of pus and dead tissue.
Carbuncle 是两个或多个疖子的簇。这是一种毛囊感染,会扩散到附近的皮肤和更深层。它们通常表现为红色、柔软的肿块,表面有数个充满脓液的斑点。患者可能伴有发热等全身症状,邻近的淋巴结也可能肿大。Carbuncles 可出现在任何有毛发的部位,但最常见于皮肤较厚的区域,如颈后、背部和大腿。它们通常始于称为毛囊炎的小毛囊感染。如果不及时治疗,感染会发展为疖子;多个疖子相连即形成痈。病灶可以是一大块,也可以是数个小块。 A carbuncle is a contiguous collection of two or more furuncles. A carbuncle is an infection of the hair follicle(s) that extends into the surrounding skin and deep underlying subcutaneous tissue. They typically present as an erythematous, tender, inflamed, fluctuant nodule with multiple draining sinus tracts or pustules on the surface. Systemic symptoms are usually present, and regional lymphadenopathy may occur. They can arise in any hair-bearing location on the body; however, they are most common in areas with thicker skin such as the posterior neck, back, and thighs. A carbuncle can start as a folliculitis, which, if left untreated, can lead to a furuncle, and when multiple furuncles are contiguous, it becomes classified as a carbuncle. Carbuncles can be solitary or multiple.
疖子表现为毛囊周围不平、红色、充满脓液的肿块,伴有触痛、发热和疼痛感。待脓液排出时,肿块中心常可见黄色或白色的点。严重感染时,患者可能出现发热、淋巴结肿大和乏力等全身症状。
疖子常见于臀部或肛门周围、背部、颈部、腹部、胸部、手臂或腿部,甚至耳道内。眼周出现的疖子称为麦粒肿。
不应在家自行挤压或切开疖子,以免加重感染或扩散。对于大面积、反复发作或位于敏感部位(如腹股沟、乳房、腋窝、鼻孔周围或鼻孔内、耳内)的疖肿,医生可能会建议使用抗生素治疗。
