Your children may have mollescum. My son and daughter a had it. The cores are contagious so when you start popping those cores out everywhere the core touches it spreads. If you leave them alone less of a risk spreading. I located a silver nitrate based Vaseline type medicine and just applied often and covered what I could. This is very painful for the kids when removing any part of these bumps. Good luck and I hope they heal quickly and go away on their own. Fyi, be ready for small scars where you popped them so far. I unfortunately have experience here and learned not to pop them.

How are you doing now.Recently I cleaned a house that was sprayed for bugs with pesticide. After that I got and itchy bump on the back of my leg then two. It was most likely a reaction from the bug spray. Then I started itching all over, so I assumed I had hives. The bumps were like bug bites so naturally(like everyone else) I ripped my bed apart looking for bed bugs. Nope.The bumps when scratched turn into little bleeding sores that spread and scab but will not heal. I still have them on my arm and after reading about the Dr.s really not healing this, I wanted to feel a burning sensation instead of itching so, I used bleach ( I don't recommend anyone try this). It stops the itching and starts the healing.

My sores have been with me 4 years+ nothing seems to help and Dr's say don't pick...I don't pick unless they are painful and they need to bled out to stop the pain. I'm going to the wound center here, I've been told all types of things but I see the frustration in everyone.

Just wondering if parasites could cause these sores..I have been trying to rid myself of parasites and during the cleansing process is when these sore statted howed up on my hands and flat light color moles stared showing up on my body also. The skin on the crater like sore is very hard, with clear cover And a little redness around the sore..mine doesn't itch, but it's hard to pick up items without pain.

Try AHCC, it cures almost anything, including HPV

I disagree with your post. Cold sores are usually caused by the herpes simplex virus (HSV) type 1.
My husband suffers from cold sores and was prescribed Valtrex by our family physician. The medication works wonders!

Cold sores and herpes are the exact same thing. Cold sores are the herpes simplex 1 virus (hsv1). Genital herpes is usually the herpes simplex 2 virus (hsv2). Canker sores and fever blisters are not the herpes virus but yes cold sores are.

Dermatitis herpetiformis. Don't google image search. Trust me I did this for seven years.
It's a gluten reaction

I have the same problem. I have had it for a year now and it spreads. I want to know also what it is. I was a heroin user when i first noticed it, i quit using as soon as i broke out.

I have been having similar issues as has been described in this thread since May last year, have had hundreds of these spots since. It's been frustrating not knowing what it is and why it keeps happening. And I have all these spotty scars all over my body.

Today my dermatologist came back to me with a diagnosis of lymphomatoid papulosis, rare (1-2 cases per million) with no known cause or cure. So I'm being referred to a hospital for a further specialist opinion and treatment options. In the meantime I've been prescribed with Diprosone cream. At least I know what it is now.

Absolutely not true, we've prescribed valtrex for many patients to treat cold sores. Don't give bad advice.
