Are Bumps Near My Anus Molluscum Contagiosum Or Warts?

Hi I noticed two small bumps around my anus when going to the bathroom. I popped them and they started to bleed when I took a look at them I noticed they had a white core. Is this a clear indication of Molluscum Contagiosum or some kind of warts. After they were popped the white cores where very small about the size of a tip of a pen

Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi.
As per your case history you are having molluscum contagiosum.
My treatment advice is -
1. Don't squeeze the lesions as it may worsen the condition.
2. Apply a mild antibiotic cream like fusiderm cream twice daily on it.
3. Only curative treatment is extraction done by a dermatologist.

Thanks.
