Molluscum Contagiosum

squirt_mama · 02-13-2017, 08:21 AM

Anyone have any success treating MC naturally? 13 years ago, we did the acid, dermo treatment (before I knew better) on my then 9 year old. My now 5 yo ds has contracted MC and it is rapidly spreading

I'm hoping to treat naturally but he is not a fan of any topical applications, ie. ACV. I'm boosting his intake of probiotics but at a loss for anything else internal. Any help would be appreciated! Thanks!

My friend did. I'll ask her for more of her routine when I cam. In the meantime, I know she made sure he always had an undershirt on, clean every day.

I made some essential oils diluted for her to roll on. That helped too. I'd be happy to share the recipe later, when I'm downstairs.

The things I know to suggest are mostly topical . Im sure tho that taking antiviral things internally could help too like garlic coconut oil. Would he let you wipe them with a cotton ball or swab with some peroxide ACV or something and then allow a bandaid over that you could put raw honey or something else antiviral on?Not sure how many he has

We had quite the outbreak on chickadee. We did the Do nothing approach and didn't share towels and washed everything and it went away on its own. Nobody else got it!

We treat it with TTO. Our doctor suggested we do nothing with the first outbreak, but it was spreading fast. Dab TTO on the spots. When they dry out enough that the waxy substance inside can be extracted, do that and then dab with TTO again using the tip of a Q-tip. If you wipe large areas with the TTO it will be too harsh on the skin. The other thing is to always keep the warts covered with clothing or bandaids. Never wear clothes or pjs two days in a row. Don't share towels. Make sure hands are washed well after treating or scratching the warts. Sanitize the tub after bathing. Treat the spots daily.

If you mix the TTO with hydrated clay and dab on with a swab it will help them dry out quickly and keep from itching

TTO= tea tree oil, yes?

Thanks for all the tips mamas!
