Molluscum Contagiosum
Molluscum contagiosum is a viral skin infection that produces small raised lesions, usually with a central dimple, and which can be spread by direct contact.
How it presents: firm, skin-colored or pearly, painless bumps usually appear, which can arise in different areas of the body and are common in childhood.
When to seek care? It is advisable to have them checked when they multiply, become irritated or inflamed, or raise questions about their origin.
Who treats it? The dermatologist, and in children the pediatric dermatologist, is the appropriate specialist to evaluate skin lesions. With new spots or bumps that do not go away, a professional consultation helps clarify what it is.
