i had molluscum a few months back, and they have since disappeared and have been gone for a while now. however, i had sex on sunday (part of the time unprotected :nono: ) and on wednesday i noticed a single tiny red bump... too small for me to be able to notice a dimple, on the top of my penis. i am positive it was not there on sunday, for i check myself out a lot, and i was just wondering if it still could have been spread because i have read that the only way the bumps are transferred from one person to another is from direct contact to a bump and rigorous rubbing.... i am not sure what to do. i put some aldara on it and witch hazel and its pretty mmuch just a spot now. let me know if you think it could have been spread to the other person

This just happened to me too! I thought mine were gone and me and the guy i've been seeing just kinda messed around with some over the bra/underwear stuff. Then i realized today that i have one where he was rubbing with a certain body part. I am so worried that he is going to get something now. ahhhh!

yeah, this sucks. ive read that they are only spread when someone has 1) an active outbreak of them or 2) the fluid inside it touches the other person... hmmmmmm

they just need to go away

I have noticed w/ mine that any type of irritation makes them worse. If I shave, wear tight pants, etc... they seem to pop out more. Most of them usually stay small and disappear in a day or so but a few will get more irritated and enlarge. This is one strange virus.

Before I shave I wash my legs/bikini area down w/ alcohol. I use some tea tree oil w/ my shavingcream and after I rinse my razor I dip the blade in tea tree oil to kill off anything that may have gotten on it to prevent spreading. I also keep my blades changed more regularly and make sure I either use alcohol or tea tree oil after shaving. I did read on the internet that shaving will aid in the spread of it. If you can touch one and touch another part of your body and break out you know a razor has to be transmitting it elsewhere.
