I’m trying to get over mulluscum and I had a bump on my scrotum. My doc prescribed aldara and after two days my skin there turned red but the bump subsided.Is this how mulluscum looks when it’s fading? I tested for STDs two weeks ago and it was all clear.

Hi there.Where else do you have Molluscum on your body?They appear as skin coloured or light pink coloured growths.Usually it takes at least a month or more for Molluscum to fade and disappear.A bump on scrotum can be simply hair follicle or aa sweat gland.Please avoid sexual contact till it resolve.Share more details about condition for me to explain you in a more detailed way.Hope this helps.Good day!
Yes I have similar bumps
Hi
My opinion this is simply aldara side effects , there is no reason to worry about the redness
Good Luck
Hi,
No worries it is normal and will subside after you finish the treatment.
