[quote=Anonymous]My 2.5 year old has had 2 molluscum bumps on his face for a year now. I took him to a derm over the summer who told me that if he treated the ones on his face it might leave a scar. At the time he also had one on his neck and the dr treated the neck one with an antiviral and said that once that one dissapears it will jump start DC's immune system to fight the ones on his face. He also gave me retin a to apply daily to the ones on his face. The one on his neck did go away but the ones on his face are still there and the retin a did absolutely nothing. And I've notice 2 more pop up under his chin. I'm really hesitant to go back to this same doctor. Just wondering if anyone has had a similar problem with molluscum on the face of their DC and what treatment worked and if you have a recomendation for a dermatologist who sees kids this age in the Bethesda area. thanks[/quote]
