Hi Dr Hardy
My daughter is 4 and she had eczema that she has mostly outgrown. Her pediatrician diagnosed her with Mollescum about 2 months ago and I wasn't too worried about it because her older brother had a very mild case that cleared up on it's own. In the past few weeks however she has developed b/w 30-40 new bumps so I am getting extremely worried. My uncle has quite a bit of experience in the pharmaceutical industry and suggested that I try Resveratol topically on the spots. He gave me a bottle of 98% resveratol caspsules and suggested that I mix the powder with cream and apply to the spots several times a day for it's anti-viral properties. Do you think that this is safe for a child? I have been trying tea-tree oil but have not yet seen any results and i'm worried about her getting eczema fromt he dry skin. I've also tried putting small round bandages over the bump but she gets her eczema back in the spot and it seems to scar.
Several of the posts in this site suggest that it is linked to a parasite in the body but everything else I have read said that it is a cutaneous virus. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated as the bumps are moving up her trunk towards her face.
Thanks,
Shannon

Thank you for your advice. I will give them a try. Regarding the reseveratol question though, i thought that resveratrol was a natural compound found in grapes and peanuts? Also, do you think that Molluscum is a parasite or a virus?
Thanks again for your time.

resveratrol is an isolate ... isolates never work as effciently as a whole food ... you're not going to try to get rid of it with grapes and peanuts are you? not enough in them for you to accomplish this.
Wikipedia gives a good discription of molluscum, stating it's a dna type virus.
Who has the molluscum problem?

This is a reply to # 1,076,789use the whole food that reseveratol is found in becouse the other nutrients in those foods make the reseveratol work as natuer intened. using reseveratol out of the whole food is just a crude drung

This is a reply to # 1,077,884I have the same problem with my 6 year old son and these bumps just developed out of nowhere and doctors have adviced that they will go away on their own up to 2 years. He had some mild eczema and they seem to be increasing. Some people suggested burning them but I hear it is very painful for him.
I have bought some "heal molluscum" oil from healing natural oils. It has some tea tree oil smell to it and I am to apply it to the bumps religioulsy 3 times a day with the promise of seeing results within 6 weeks.
Is there anything else I can do to help him? I was told he might have got it from touching a door knob or another kid etc... So if it is a virus does it mean that ingesting medicine is useless?
Any help will be appreciated!- Re: molluscum shanninder

This is a reply to # 1,174,479I posted the question regarding my daughter about 4 months ago. Almost immediately after posting we went on a tropical vacation. She developed a mild rash from the heat and the sunscreen and she couldn't stop scratching her skin. Her bumps were all over her tummy, back and thighs at this point. I was so worried that she would be causing the molluscum to spread. As soon as we got back from our trip I booked an appointment with a dermatologist. The earliest appointment i could get was two weeks away. By the time her appointment rolled around she went from having 50+ bumps to one small bump. They cleared up within days all by themselves (you could still see some marks but all the bumps were gone and healing. We went for the appointment anyway and the dermatologist said that it was probably her intense scratching that allowed her body to recognize the virus and fight it. He said that it's a coetaneous virus that the body isn't aware of and therefore doesn't fight.
I'm not suggesting that you should encourage your child to scratch because it could spread but I wanted to let you know what happened! I have read in my research some people beleive that scraping out a few to remove the waxy white stuff until you draw a bit of blood may help the body to recognize the virus, but I don't know....
Good Luck,
