Do people with thalassemia get boils?

People with thalassemia may have a higher risk of infections due to compromised immune function, particularly if they have received multiple blood transfusions, which can lead to iron overload and related complications. While boils are not a direct symptom of thalassemia, individuals with weakened immune systems may be more susceptible to skin infections, including boils. Maintaining good hygiene and regular medical check-ups can help manage these risks. If someone with thalassemia develops boils, they should consult a healthcare professional for proper diagnosis and treatment.
