Molluscum contagiosum is caused by a common poxvirus. Associated with the virus, firm, skin-colored, pus-filled lesions with a central depression are typically present. They contain a semi-fluid, caseous matter which usually turns solid overtime. Molluscum contagiosum is a common painless and usually harmless viral infection of the skin. Molluscum affects all age groups and is commonly seen in children and individuals having a lowered immunity. They tend to spread by contact and a person may have multiple Molluscum due to spread of the caseous matter within the Molluscum.Homeopathy works wonders in curing this ailment and should be opted for its beneficial and safe curative effect. Molluscum can spread to surrounding skin by scratching or rubbing and can spread to others by skin-to-skin contact or handling contaminated objects such as towels, toys, and clothing. Poor hygiene and warm, moist climates encourage the spread of molluscum. Use of public or school swimming pools is associated with childhood infections. Local applications (salicylic acid), cryotherapy (freezing), cauterization (burning), electro-surgery (electric current) and laser therapy work only temporarily or superficially and do not guarantee any long-term solution.

Adults and teens are more often infected by molluscum through sexual contact and tend to have genital lesions.
Adults and teens are more often infected by molluscum through sexual contact and tend to have genital lesions. Children from age 1–5 are most commonly affected with lesions appearing on the face, neck, arms, armpits, and hands (but usually not the palms). In adults, the genital, stomach, buttock, and inner thigh areas are more often affected as intimate contact with another is the typical source of infection. Men are more often affected than women. Adults with defective immune systems (such as with HIV) may have severe, extensive infection. One or more small (1–5 mm) pink, white, or skin-colored, smooth, dome-shaped bumps, often with a tiny dot or depression in the center, occur in clusters and sometimes in a straight line from scratching and self-inoculation. In patients with a defective immune system, bumps can be larger than a nickel.
