Hi.
As per your case history of molluscum contagiosum, my treatment advice is -
1. It is a viral infection leading to small bumps.
2. It is contagious, so keep your clothes and belongings separate.
3. Apply a tretinoin 0.05% ointment once at night on lesions and antibiotic cream like fusiderm once at day on lesions.
4. Other treatment options are extraction by curette, cauterization, laser ablation done only after consulting a dermatologist.

Thanks.
