Boils form when the skin – to be more precise, a hair follicle or an oil gland in the skin – get infected. In the initial stages of the infection you can only notice some redness, but after a few days (usually four to six) the spot becomes swollen, a tender lump develops and gets filled with white and yellowish pus.
