My DSS (6) has had molluscum for a while now, mainly around his bottom/groin area and my DS (24 months) now appears to have contracted this from his brother. He has to spots on his groin, armpits, stomach and thighs. He's had one or two for about 6 months but they now seem to be spreading all over his body. I'm a nightmare because I can't help myself but want to pick/squeeze them but obviously at just 2 he is very resistent to me picking at any bit of his body (I've even tried to pick them at night when he's asleep - so he wakes up groggy to me furtling under his pyjamas and I can only get one at a time before he wakes!).
Has anyone used anything that seemed to work on them? Online searches reveal lots of herbal type treatments but only want to fork-out and treat them both if there is a possibility of success.
Any experiences gratefully received.
