What are muluscums?

Answer 1

Molluscum contagiosum is a viral skin infection caused by the molluscum contagiosum virus, resulting in small, raised, painless bumps on the skin. These lesions are typically flesh-colored or pearly and can appear anywhere on the body, often spreading through direct skin-to-skin contact. While they are generally harmless and often resolve on their own, treatment options are available if the lesions are bothersome or persist. The infection is most common in children but can also affect adults, particularly those with weakened immune systems.
