The best way to treat Molluscum Contagiosum is with silver...Period.\n\nWhy is that? Because the only thing that can stop Molluscum cells from replicating (spreading) is nano-silver. Nano-silver is not the same as colloidal silver; nano-silver is tiny particles of silver, one billionth of an inch in size, electrically dispersed in petroleum jully and tea tree oil. it is completely safe, even if ingested, and the amount of silver used is microscopically small. There is no chance of absorbing too much. You would absorb more silver in your body wearing a silver ring in one day than you would if you used Molluscum SilverCure™ every day for a year! The reason nano-silver silver works for Molluscum is that it interferes with the cellular respiration of Molluscum lesions. Fortunately, Molluscum is extremely sensitive to silver, and silver does not harm the healthy skin around a lesion. \nI have listed several sites below that may help you to help your daughter. \nBLessings to you!

Please don't attempt to remove it yourself - could be very dangerous as it could make the cells react in a bad way. See your doctor or a specialist...

Sorry to say, not really. This is one of the most common viral infections kids pass around, increasingly so over the past several decades as more and younger kids have gone into daycare with less prepared immune systems. But it isn't really harmful, has no long term side effects and runs its course in 6-9 months. Just wash your hands, make sure he washes his, which is always good practice anyway, as you know.  Keep the sheets clean weekly, probably no overnights with non - infected friends.\nCheck with your doctor to be sure what I am saying is correct, and don't be too upset over it all.\n\nI just did a rapid google check and came up with a lot of sites purporting to have miracle cures for molluscum contagiosum. I would be very careful before investing in or using any such remedy. That is why I won't list any of the sites I came across here b/c I don't want to seem as if I am somehow endorsing them. I will tell you that my son had this also when he was four and I took him to the dermatologist who put freezing drops on each wart and froze them off. I had to bring him in every week for about a month til we got them all and this was over 15 years ago. I am glad that I was using a licensed dermatologist though, you know why?????\n\nBecause at the very end of his treatment, my son and two year old daughter came down with chicken pox which initially looked exactly like the molluscum to me and if I had been treating them MYSELF, being a DR. MOM, I would have put something for warts on a chicken pock and maybe really scarred them for life. Of course the real doctor recognized immediately what was wrong.\n\nGo see a skin doctor. That would be best.

I've heard of them going away on their own, but in my case I had to use medicine. I waited a while to get treated for them, because I thought they would just go away, but they didn't. If anything, they got even worse. \n\nI was prescribed Aldara cream and after about a week and a half they still hadn't gone away! The doctor said they can take several weeks to go away though. The only other thing you can do is have them lasered off or frozen off. I saw that as kind of a last resort though, because it can be very painful. There are no home remedies, you'll need to go to a doctor. Ask your doctor to give you a prescription for Aldara cream, and if that doesn't work after a few weeks you might have to get them frozen or lasered off. Good luck!

It is common and very treatable.  Certainly tell your mom.  If it is the size it bothers you it is for sure time to be removed.  There are many over the counter remedies.  DON"T WORRY!

Best is to cover it and leave it alone. It will ripen and when it is ready it is easy to lance it and get rid of all the puss. You may have to go to the doctors and get some antibiotics if it spreads.

I would suggest going to your doctor if it is not already gone.  It could be an infected pore or ingrown hair as well.

i think it is always best to ask a doctor especially if its for your child. there could be a drug interaction or complication with any underlying conditions your daughter might have.

Please, don't put your child's health in the hands of an amateur forum. Respect your child's mind and body. Consult your doctor. (I am a physician myself and this is the best advice I can possibly give you.)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molluscum_contagiosum\n\nNo mention of toilet seat contamination. Seems to be a sexually transmitted disease.\n\nSpreads to other areas of the body, that could be a whole 'nother issue!

rub some neosporin on them they should go away within a few days. Don't try to cover them with makeup it will cause an infection.

Any rash on your genital area is not going to go away untreated. Since it was at one time smaller and has grown, it could be serious. Go make an appointment with a doctor and have him check it out. It is better to be safe then sorry. \nHope this helps

I'm not quite sure, but it's not difficult to get rid of if you think you have it.  It can be caught as easily as sitting down on a public toilet seat, so I'm sure it's quite common.  Just sit down and carefully shave all the pubic hair off to get rid of them.  The regrowth will likely be itchy as well, but the crabs will be gone.

Go to doc and have it frozen off.  You can do it yourself, there is a product that will do the same thing.

No, not from how you have described the situation. But you should be careful of infection. \n\nIf, at some point, it does not heal it might be a good idea to have a dermatologist biopsy or evaluate it for you. Keep an eye on it.\n\nIncidentally, when my son was little he had a mole on his neck that kept getting bigger so we had a surgeon remove it. We thought we were protecting him against cancer . . . little did we know that despite doing all we could to protect him a few years later he developed an abdominal cancer. All that time and we worried about the wrong thing! The mole was not the problem . . turns out the tumors were in his abdomen.
