What are the treatments for Molluscum Contagiosum?

Answer by  LadyDiamond30 (138)

Treatment for molluscum contagiosum is not always mandatory. They often disappear them self if unless infected by bacteria. popular treatments are scraping of the lesions (called curettage) or removal using heat (called cautery) or cold (called cryotherapy, a procedure performed with liquid nitrogen). Or you could use some medications like trichloroacetic acid, topical podophyllotoxin cream

This is a viral thing and there really is no medical treatment for it the one thing you can do is try and stay where it is a little cooler it the cool air tends not to irritate it like the heat does. It will usually take between seven and ten day for it to be completely gone.
