I would just like to tell you guys about Molloscum Contagiosum. In adults it is considered a STD but children can get it from other children as well. It's a virus but it isn't really harmful, it just causes small bumps that usually form around a hair follicle. When you pop them they bleed a lot but they aren't really painful. They have a waxy core that once you get it out they go away pretty quickly. They are EXTREMELY contagious. Usually if you have the virus you get a couple outbreaks and then they go away for good in about 3 to 5 years, if you have a healthy immune system. I've tried to find out as much as I can because I have them and my doctor thinks I got them from a tanning bed. You can even get them from sharing towels with someone who has them. Apparently 3% of adults have the virus. If these symptoms sound familiar I would suggest you go to the doctor and make sure. |
What is the treatment for MC?
I have a few 'white heads' on my pubic area that i have popped over the last few months, and now they have appreard to have spread ... similar to what desribed above.. white core, then a lot of blood, then nothing, a small spot where they once were, but no real scarring ...
I just want to know the treatment options, what precautions I should take with my girl, possibility of recurrence, etc
THANKS! |

|
|
| Im 16 and lately I have been having these large boil-like bumps around my waist, genital, and inner thigh. I am not sexually active or anything like that but everytime i play sports these things appear and it hurts when i walk sumtimes. After i play basketball i notice these large bumps. There are like five scattered but they are large and i popped one and clear fluid along with blood came out so i stopped. I plan to ask my doctor this month when i go in for check up if this is serious because most people say that this is because of sweat, friction of pants with the inner thigh or weight gain and stuff like that but i have no clue... |

They are likely Fordyce spots, (blocked sebaceous
cysts/blood vessels), in which case they are harmless. |

|
|
| I've got a big zit-like bump on my ball sack, and it's been there for years. It doesn't hurt, nor does it reproduce, or grow hair, but it's there, and I'm sick of looking at it. When I pop it, it looks like any other zit schmeg. It always comes back, though, and it's starting to piss me off. I'm 30 with a clean bill of health. So... zit, or other? |

Molloscum Contagiosum actually looks like this:
I think what everyone else is describing is more like a lump under the skin, like a big pimple. I have experienced the same thing myself and am also overweight and sit at a desk for 8 hours a day so I think these are the leading factors involved. Just to be 100% you should definitely see a dermatologist. |

i actually have the same thing that a lot of you guys are talking about. I think it might be somehow similar to how acne happens.
I've gotten these "pimples" on my thighs and butt cheeks randomly now for several years. The very first time I noticed them, they were on my butt and hurt real bad when I sat down lol. It wasn't coincidence that during that time it was also summer. At first it was just on my butt, then it spread to my thighs, lower calves, even my arms. I had it for about a month before they just went away and left real bad, dark brown scars. When it got cooler they went away, probably because the lack of heat caused me to not sweat as much as before.
I know for a fact that if you do sweat a lot between your thighs or between your butt crack you're more prone to have that sweat clog up the pores in that area of your body if you do not clean yourself right away. Clogged pores can lead up to possible infection which leads to something that looks like a pimple on your inner thigh or on your butt cheeks.
I tried seeing the doctor and this is what he told me, then he prescribed some salicylic acid, which basically just kills acne bacteria to prevent an infection. But if you've ever had acne before, you know that this only works to a certain degree because it's just a coverup. After I stopped using it due to the long term health effects, this condition would come back because I killed the acne bacteria but my pores still keep getting clogged. I started thinking about how come I have this problem and other "normal" people don't? I did a lot of research, took a lot of health classes, read a lot of books.
Recently, they started coming back. I've noticed that what I eat also affects this condition a bit because I'm usually very strict with my diet, only eating fresh vegetables, salads, very little sugar, yogurt, free-range chicken, etc, no fast food, etc... but recently I ate very poorly, hung out with friends, ate huge dinners at 2 AM in the morning, ate tons of bread, cookies, didn't get very good sleep, and I noticed the condition continued.
I started a website about how I cleared my acne, but really it's more about health and well being. Because in the end, what I started wondering was more about what separated me from those people who sometimes didn't even have to wash their faces or use salicylic acid and they still would be acne free. Those people must be "healthy" people, how do I get like that? So if you're interested in what I have to say here, please check out my blogspot:
