[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It tends to flare up for a few weeks/ month before it fades. It’s harmless and always goes away on its own. I never understood the panic surrounding molluscum from some parents on here. Like, literally who cares if your kid has unsightly bumps for a year and a half. Almost every kid gets it at some point (some super mild of course). It’s fine. Unclench. Your child will be ready to be a J Crew model again in another month or two. [/quote] Not harmless. By “leaving it alone,” my first give gave it to my second kid and their cousin. We did the needle technique and it cleared it up in a few weeks. No scarring [/quote] It really is harmless, regardless of how it spreads. I couldn't imagine making my kid sit in the shower every night while I picked at him with a needle. Gross and scary. [/quote] Your kid must not have had it somewhere incredibly noticeable? My dd has them around one knee, so nbd, and we are treating them, but 2 of her close friends got them terribly on their faces and necks. At first they thought it was sudden acne but nope, molluscum. I’d be hard pressed to find a tween girl who would just let that run its course [/quote]
