Molluscum contagiosum
Molluscum contagiosum is a viral infection of the skin that causes small bumps. This virus is commonly spread through skin-to-skin contact, including sexual contact. In healthy people, the bumps will usually go away on their own in 2 - 4 months, but other treatment options are also available.
