Right took Brooke to dr and its what you say they are... cost me 17.50 to be told. He said its a virus and will go away with in the year (you guys all know this) no mircle cure unfortunatly. At least they are only on her upper arm, armpit and side of upper chest on left side. Doesn't bother her too much. they actually look like they maybe going but probably not.

Well if you explain them to her (or she probably heard the doc lol) she should feel a lot better about them. Unfortunately other kids/people will presume they are contagious or chicken pox, etc, etc. Watch her over the winter as whenever Briona gets a cold, she gets more of the spots as well (immune system down).

*BUMP!*

btw does anyone who originally posted on this thread still have trouble with malloscum? Briona's all cleared away at long last but she has had a couple more come and go since. And it looks like she will always have the scars from where they scabbed near her eyes (when they were clearing up).

about 12 month's I made the terrible habbit of squeezing the odd one which why I think they got infected and left nasty scar's I have left Mikey's alone and they seem so much better, but spreading so I think we are jsut starting out with Mikey does anyone know if it is a family related thing we had mikey just after Alan's started t ogo and the ynever had a bath together while Alan had them so wondering if this something we might see in all our kid's.

Deb it's mostly an excema thing although your boys may have managed to catch it from each other. I'm not certain whether Hannah had one or not but if so, it was only one. Briona had tonnes. Far too many to count, even our doc was surprised at how many. Kryssi has had none and she is past the age the other(s) got theirs.

They all get that infected look at the end whether you squeeze them or not. It's what they look like when the immune system fights them.

Excema is genetic, I have two diff types from my mum and dad (although only exhibit one). Briona is our only one with excema so far, so there's hope for your #3

I know this is an old post however; antibiotics only work on bacteria, Molluscum is a Virus - therefore antibiotics will NOT kill molluscum. All over the www you will see home help remedies for Molluscum which people claim will work - including antibiotics - the truth is the virus was going to disappear without treatment anyway. There is nothing scientifically proven to kill molluscum - please don’t add to the problem of antibiotic resistance by using them for a virus which they won’t have any affect on.
