About a month ago I found out that I had mono. After finding out, I developed two boils on my bottux. I was wondering if there was any connection between the two? Kelley

Dear Kelley,
Mono is a viral infection and boils are from a bacterial infection so I do not think there is a connection. The one area that may be related is that your immune system may have been weakened due to the mono. This result might have made you more suseptible to the bacterial infection. Hope this helped answer your question.
