I have a boil and need help?

So i've got a boil on my butt which has made it painful for me to sit, lay down or even run. I think it's about reached it's peak so i'm expecting it to begin draining soon, is there any way I can help it drain faster or anything like that?

    It helps speed things up by soaking your rear in a warm bath with Epsom salt. Once the thing pops, you need keep it draining for another day or two by soaking or using a warm washcloth. After soaking, wash everything with soap and water to remove all the bacteria, dry off, and then apply povidone iodine to the boil and surrounding area.
