Does anyone know what molloscum is?
My 12 year old son started with this strange rash on his back and I was unsure if it was the chickenpox because I've never had them. Then they became raised bumps with white fluid in them. Took him to the Pediatrician and he says "Oh that's molloscum". He says there's nothing you can do for it. They have to go away on their own and it may take two years. You try telling a self conscious preteen that news. Is that true? Is there no cure for this. Should I take him to see a dermatologist? Anyone else ever hear of this condition or have a child with it?
