Molluscum contagiosum is a common, harmless viral skin condition that causes small, firm, dome-shaped bumps, often with a tiny central dimple. It clears on its own, usually within 6 to 18 months, so watchful waiting with no medication is the recommended first approach. This visit confirms the diagnosis from clear photos, gives skin-care and spread-prevention advice, and routes anything that needs hands-on care in person. It does not treat eyelid or eye bumps, widespread or atypical bumps, a weakened immune system, or genital bumps in a child.

如果治疗合适，医生可以将非管制药物处方发送到您的药房，并通过门户网站向您提供说明。

Does molluscum need to be treated?

Usually not. Molluscum is harmless and clears on its own, typically within 6 to 18 months, so watchful waiting with no medication is the recommended first approach. This visit focuses on confirming the diagnosis and giving skin-care and spread-prevention advice.

How can I keep it from spreading?

Avoid scratching or picking the bumps, keep them covered when practical, and do not share towels, washcloths, or baths. The visit gives simple steps to lower the chance of spreading it to other areas or to other people.

When should molluscum be seen in person instead?

Please see a clinician in person for bumps on or near the eye, genital bumps in a child, a single bump that is bleeding, rapidly growing, dark, or clearly different from the others, more than about 30 bumps or any bump larger than 1 cm, a weakened immune system, or signs of a skin infection such as spreading redness with fever.
