Although, I have always been in obstetrics I have come across it with some of my patients or their children and back then (5-10 years ago) people recommended the "do nothing" approach as it will go away on its own. I thought I was going to have to do some research to see why they changed their minds to treatment - so glad to see Kim had the "do nothing" approach recommended to them as well.<br /><br />Best,<br />Stephanie HurstAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-45366838952579221032010-01-14T00:30:08.273-05:002010-01-14T00:30:08.273-05:00Two of my four boys had molluscum and it was very ...Two of my four boys had molluscum and it was very frustrating and nearly drove me crazy. My 6 year old had them worst in his private areas and inbetween his elbows. My 9 year old had them on his hands and face also which made his eczema go crazy at times. <br /><br />However, on the advice of our pediatric dermatologist, we went with the "do nothing and it will eventually go away on its own" route. As soon as each cluster would start going away (you know when they turn red and itchy/sore) we treated them with prescription strength 2% hydrocortizone creme. Eventually, they all cleared up virtually pain free and left NO SCARS whatsoever. No pain - no scars. Just frustration and more than a few embarrassing moments when our 6 year couldn't keep his hands out of his pants. LOL! <br /><br />It took about 18+ months, but our home has been molluscum-free for over 2 years now. Thank the Lord! P.S. Happy Birthday to Mason!Kim Abraham - Mom to the Fabulous Five!https://www.blogger.com/profile/01959381592446658098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-72672544216733974942010-01-13T12:40:51.520-05:002010-01-13T12:40:51.520-05:00I feel your pain...we had a bout of molluscum in o...I feel your pain...we had a bout of molluscum in our house last summer. I shudder even typing the word -- afraid I will tempt it to return. We tried "ZymaDerm." We ordered it online through Naturopathix, Inc. It is pain free which is beautiful! You have to be really vigilant about using it, and it has a horrible smell when you open the bottle, but it did the trick!! Much cheaper than the derm. creams too! Good luck!Christinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06317463724240498996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-71485357319474726172010-01-13T09:26:05.283-05:002010-01-13T09:26:05.283-05:00can you still buy the cream and not claim it? not ...can you still buy the cream and not claim it? not sure how it works in your parts but that is how we do it. most of our meds and creams cost about $26 or $5 for Aden. <br />My Daughter has an acne cream that is $45 that we can claim back through our private health fund if we wish. We do for a year we never knew we could. Only get around $26 back but still it adds up. <br />With the thrush there is a single dose tablet out now, that clears it up in a 2days. Here it cost $20 over the counter no script needed. I’ve been eating them lol been on AB’s as well. <br />Hope it all clears up for Mason real soon.Cathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12760107383057492204noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-5864000617716312332010-01-13T08:19:50.446-05:002010-01-13T08:19:50.446-05:00Nick really likes his dermatologist~ he doesn'...Nick really likes his dermatologist~ he doesn't specialize in pediatrics (obviously) but I'll get his name.<br /><br />Sorry you had such a bad experience.<br /><br />Hugs!Lindahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04425142535225258570noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-55710481859814813132010-01-13T08:08:54.381-05:002010-01-13T08:08:54.381-05:00Ok, I started getting aggravated just by reading y...Ok, I started getting aggravated just by reading your post. First, I will say a prayer for Mason - your poor baby! <br /><br />What is it with Dr's not being taught how to have a decent bedside manner, if they have none to begin with? Gggrrr. <br /><br />Hang in there. You will find the right Dr - I am sure of that.Sarihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16604795442859757843noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4901975288204908132.post-11762626100511924062010-01-13T02:42:14.026-05:002010-01-13T02:42:14.026-05:00So sorry to hear about the ordeal with Mason's...So sorry to hear about the ordeal with Mason's doctor visit! Doesn't it just make you wonder WHY some people choose medicine as a career path? You mustn't have one, two, or three skills to be a doctor or some other health care professional.

He lectured me about how could I let it get this bad before coming in, and did I have any idea how close I was to being rushed to the hospital in an ambulance and being on life support. I was like "Could you yell at me AFTER you make me not die...."ashleypmohttp://www.chaosdiaries.comnoreply@blogger.com
