Suggest An Antiseptic Lotion To Treat Molluscum Contagiosum

Hi, I m trying to treat Molluscum Contagiosum at home and new lesions continue to develop. I have been applying Retin A cream. It does shrink the size of the sore but I still get new bumps. Is there an antiseptic lotion or cream I should be using?

Hi,

You can try topical Podophyllotoxin cream (Condylox).

If the bumps keeps appearing, it is better to consult a dermatologist and plan for cryotherapy or cauterization.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
