If it is, I recommend colloidal silver. Worked wonders when DD had it.

Very contagious, but actually harmless, though can get infected if scratched.

@devildeepbluesea ok thank you! I will try this! Xx
@NancyJoan oh god really!! I hope my newborn baby doesn't catch it - she won't stop itching! She's 8 - I keep telling her not to! Going to go doctors next week xx

They shouldn't be itchy. And they don't look like the molluscum my dc had.

Has she had chicken pox? I was wondering about shingles (you have to have had chicken pox to have shingles)

I'd keep her away from your newborn: you can catch chickenpox from shingles so until you've had someone check it, err on the side of caution.

This.

my dc had tiny white blisters like seed pearls with Molluscum, and they didn’t itch.

They look like midge bites to me.

MrsKnob · 21/10/2023 21:53

Could they possibly be bed bug bites?? They look very much like them Smile

Doesn't look like molluscum which are smaller with a small white hard head. Look like bites to me.

I would agree with this, it looks nothing like molloscum

VisaWoes · 22/10/2023 20:23

Agree it looks like bites.

Mosquito or flea bites? Do you have pets that might have picked up fleas.
