Thanyou, Suzi Suzi, I had one after a trip to Greece. When it became two, I was alarmed and went to an old family doctor. He numbed and then incised it with a scalpel that looks like an X-acto knife, and squeezed out the parasite, and then disinfected the site and covered with a bandaid to heal. He said that was the only way to get rid of them and they can spread all over the body. Hope this helps Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Dear Suzi The name " Moluscum " is actually a misnomer, as it is not in fact a mollusc, but rather a viral infection. When it occurs in adults, it is usually because the immune system is compromised. It is very contagious and can be passed via sexual contact, especially if there is a breach in the skin, for example from shaving, thus he should not shave that area and refrain from sexual activity when there is an outbreak. From a homeopathic perspective, it is very important not to treat the skin but rather treat the compromised immune system with the correct individualistic homeopathic remedy. In stubborn cases, I have found that it is helpful to remove the center of each lesion, while giving the homeopathic remedy. This process can be painful and bloody. I'm not certain as to why this is effective, considering it is a viral infection, however it appears to be beneficial. In very stubborn cases, I have given the homeopathic " Molluscum contagiosum " nosode, (a homeopathic remedy made from the virus) however it is much better for the patient's overall health to find the individualistic homeopathic remedy.

Guest guest Posted January 15, 2007 Report Share Posted January 15, 2007 Jenny Kernan, Thanks for the recommendation(s). However, using all of those ingredients would obviously cost hundreds of dollars, maybe per month, and skills to mix and/ or prepare them for use, as well as lots of time. I made the post to find solutions for my 77 Y.O. Mom, who is limited in her energies and the such, and would never be able to put all of that effort into what you suggest she take! Moreover, how can I Explain to her that those ingredients are even GOOD for her? Is there any accompanying literature/articles that show these specific ingredients will help? And, more importantly, is there an " Pre-Formulated " Mix of these ingredients to be had? It's very easy for someone with a Degree and 20 years experience and who is well funded to suggest these things, another to practically have a 77 Y.O. Woman on Social Security to DO It! And I live an hour away from her, so I cannot regularly help her on a day to day basis. She has Medicare, Medicaid and Supplemental AARP Insurance, but NONE of those things pays anything for " Alternative " Medicine or Supplements! And using dozens of supplements mixed together, none of which a person knows what they do, isn't realistic to expect for my Mother to do, or be ABLE to do! But thanks for your time in replying! /*Steve*/ -- Steve Wider Back Home Again Asbury Park, NJ www.geocities.com/asburysteve2001 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 23, 2007 Report Share Posted January 23, 2007 Thankyou for very much for your responses. Does anyone know why he is not fighting off the anti bodies of Molluscum. He always has atleast one small one on his body, and has breakouts one or twice a year. Could this be his immune system? How can he build his immune system up? This is a man I care for deeply, and he's concerned I will catch this. How can we get to the bottom of this? Many Dermatologist, have no answers. Thankyou, Suzi > I have a friend who has had this since he was 20yrs. old, now 49. > He continues to get breakouts about once a year, and every Dr. has > ignored, why he continues to get them.

Guest guest Posted January 24, 2007 Report Share Posted January 24, 2007 With my daughter we use Dr. Christophers comphrey ointment. I have been told that there is a viral spray I can use under my daughters armpits (she is 2) but I have yet to take the time and look. If anyone knows what I'm talking about it is supposed to be wonderful for viral things like this. Ien or anyone else out there familiar with something like this please let me know. thanks! , " suzisuri45 " <suzisuri wrote: > > Thankyou for very much for your responses.

Guest guest Posted January 25, 2007 Report Share Posted January 25, 2007 Molluscum is related to the " pox " virus. So in theory, one should create an immunity to it. From what I have heard it is only the liquid from the pox themself that spread this disease. So I would not share towels, clothing and always wash your hands with soap and hot water. Interestingly enough tea tree oil (the pure stuff) helps reduce the spread of it. I also recently purchased the " silver cure " but do not know how or if that will work. Iodine also works, but remember iodine CANNOT be ingested.
