I am recently suffering with molloscum right now. They are really small not big enough to burn off. I got them because my ex cheated on me with some girl in late december. Mine started showing up in early february. I heard of a lot of things to get rid of them. My ex keeps putting isopr. alcohol on them and it is helping him. I went to my gyn and she proscribed me aldera cream. I've only been on it for a week and i dont notice any changes. She also told me it was ok to shave but i dont know about it. I have been shaving but it seems like it is spreading them. I'm not sure. I've been cleaning with alcohol every night. I also thought i was getting one on my thigh and i read somewhere that putting clear nail polish on it would keep it from spreading. I tried it and that one seemed to go away. I am hesitant to put it on my genital region though. I read somewhere that popping them would help them heal faster. I popped 2 of them and they bled really bad and it doesnt seem to be helping them go away any faster. I'm not sure what to do. Thats everything i have tried. I am very confused on which are normal bumps and which are molloscum or ingrown hairs/pimples... etc... I would like to keep in contact with you and see what you try and what works for you. I heard that the over the counter wart removers could cause permanent scarring. I would see a doctor and ask them. Let me know what you find out, it could be very useful for me. I do know some stuff about this virus though, so if you have any other questions dont hesitate to ask.
