My child has had this for 8 months now. We have tried molludab but it really hurt, we are currently trying Zymaderm which seems to be drying them out.
i need to get these sorted as its really affecting his confidence, he will not remove his jumper at school - kicks off about p.e and refuses to change. he is a very active child and just doesn't want to do anything that exposes these bumps.
I have heard Thuja is good also but i am not sure of the dosage for him.
he is 5yrs and just under 3st.

We tried lots of treatments on our 8 year old and the only thing that helped was time. It lasted about a year and slowly cleared up. It was kept covered all the time at school, long sleeves, leggings in pool, tights etc. It’s very annoying.

Sorry, for our DD it took 20 months to go. We didn't try using any medicines, just time.
