Small round bumps on skin
I can see multiple small, smooth, dome-shaped, pink/pearly bumps, some with a slight central dip, clustered on the groin part. How to reduce rid of this??
Please suggest some medicines

• Findings are typical of molluscum contagiosum (pearly, dome-shaped bumps with central dimple)
• It is a viral infection, not boils; can spread locally by touch/shaving
Next Steps
• Avoid self-picking or squeezing
• Best and fastest option: dermatologist removal (cautery / cryotherapy / extraction)
• If multiple lesions → clinic procedure is preferred over creams
Helpful Tips / Words of Caution
• It is contagious → avoid shaving, scratching, or sharing towels
• Can spread to partner → avoid sexual contact till treated
• Do not use steroid creams (will worsen spread)
• Even if untreated, may resolve in months, but treatment prevents spread and scarring
Kindly consult with me via practo for detailed evaluation and treatment
