Molluscum is a skin disease caused by infectious molluscum virus infection. It is contagious and can be infected by direct contact or spread by planting itself. Personal items contaminated by molluscum infected persons, such as sheets, bedding, bath towels, bath tubs, etc., may also be infected. Therefore, sleeping in the same bed with molluscum patients may cause the disease. Molluscum contagiosum is a self-limiting disease. The warts will naturally subside for months or years, but some will last for a long time, and the longer they grow, the more. Therefore, after suffering from molluscum, you can use tweezers to crush the soft warts, and then apply trichloroacetic acid, or remove the warts by scraping, liquid nitrogen freezing and other methods.
