Does anyone know what this is, my daughter has about 4 and I can see a few potential tiny ones

They are spread at various points, neck, arm chest and near belly button.

Not sore, and seem like just skin...

My first thought was chicken pox? Has she been off colour over the past few days?

Santa01 · 28/04/2020 15:10

Def not chicken pox, had them when she was 3, have also been there a few weeks, only noticed the 3rd and 4th one today

Looks like molloscum to me.

Molluscum?

Santa01 · 28/04/2020 15:15

Yeah, these are very dry tho and don't seem filled with anything watery, just like all skin, and they have never erupted.. would that be molluscum?

I’d guess molluscum.

Yeah, molloscum contagium (not entirely sure of the spelling.)

DS1 had these. There's various internet methods of removing them - have a google. NHS website says they'll go on their own time, but could take years.

My own experience says you'll wait patiently for them to go, but eventually break and give one/many of the internet methods a go.
