Pediatrician,  's  Response
Hi, I had gone through your question and understand your concerns. I see similar cases amongst young people who visit my clinic. In the first meeting, I advise my patients to consult dermatologist for cryotherapy. After removing of Varucca plana you give him Acyclovir 30 mg/kg/day divides for 2 times during 5 days for prophylaxis recurrent infection,because it caused by papilloma virus.
Hope this answers your question. If you have additional questions or follow up questions then please do not hesitate in writing to us. I will be happy to answer your questions.

Wishing your baby a good health.
