1364054 tn?1346005167 Hello, Adaplene is a topical retinoid primarily used in the treatment of mild-moderate acne. Adapalene controls acne but does not cure it. Medications similar to adapalene have caused tumors in laboratory animals who were given the medications and exposed to real or artificial sunlight. It is not known whether adapalene increases the risk of tumors in humans. But it is advisable to protect yourself from sunlight and sunlamps while taking adapalene. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.

Avatar f tn Im 20 years old. I have acne scars and pimples . I went to a Dermatologist and he recommended me to use adapalene & clindamycin phosphate gel but now my face gets burning sensation and has got shine wherever I used that product. also the pimples which I had is turning into some kind of mark. I discontinued using after 10 days. Will it be proper by itself?
Avatar m tn I spoke with a dermatologist about it and i left with a prescription for adapalene. After a month of application on my nose, the problem has not improved. I am having a difficult time understanding how the product could be working. Is there another product that i should be using with the adapalene gel? Is there something else that i could be using? I have noticed over the years that my personal hygene products have caused my hair loss.
Avatar n tn The only problem is that molluscum is often cited in connection with hiv which concerns me a bit..they say that molluscum is more aggressive in late hiv infection and the like.
Avatar n tn i went to the doctor and i was diagnosed with having molluscum. before i was diagnosed i was sure that it was herpes because i felt a tingling burning sensation but by doctor assured me that it was molluscum. has anyone else has a tingling, burning, or itching sensation during their initial outbreak of molluscum.
Avatar n tn I was diagnosed with molluscum contagiosum 5 months ago in the genital region, and have abstained from any form of sexual intimacy since then. I have recently been getting to know this guy and realized that he had rubbed my back where there was a molluscum papule. What are the chances of him getting molluscum from touching the papule? And what is the average time that symptoms would show up?
Avatar n tn Well, I have two small children. Ages 7 and 4. My 7 year old got molluscum approx 2 years ago. The doc said to wait it out it will go away on its own. Fast forward two years later and now he has more and more. So I took him to a Dermatoligst and he treated them with a beetle juice that caused them to blister and go away. They scabbed and and became red. Some went away and some became inflammed and infected. Since we started the treatment, for every one we blisterd two or three new ones appeared.
Avatar m tn Hello, There is currently no known cure for keratosis pilaris, however, there are effective treatments available which make its symptoms less apparent. Treatment includes tretinoin or Triamcinolone cream or Adapalene, a retinoid medication. Exfoliation, intensive moisturizing creams, creams and lotions containing alpha hydroxy acids and urea may be used to temporarily improve the appearance and texture of affected skin. I hope it helps. Take care and regards.
Avatar m tn Hi doc, i use to have a molluscum, but it healed. then, a couple break out again. since then, i have this two dots of molluscum. recently, i found that more white dots are showing up on the shaft. are this molluscum? do i have aids?
Avatar m tn Hello! So I was just diagnosed with Molluscum. I have tons of them all over on shoulder, arms, legs, trunk. I have within the last 3 months been sexually active with a few different women. The Molluscum started showing up about a month ago and a few weeks later spread quite rapidly. I am not showing any other symptoms. However, about a week before the Molluscum appeared I did have an upper respiratory tract infection with a fever.
Avatar m tn I was having unprotected sex with a previous girlfriend between February and June 09 and this seems to me to be a more likely source bearing in mind the incubation period. I had the original wart and molluscum frozen off. I have had no warts since. The molluscum have reappeared in large numbers in a variety of locations on the penis shaft, but are never more than 1mm in diameter since the original ones (2-3mm) were frozen off).
Avatar n tn So I got diagnosed with molluscum a few months ago and have had some frozen off but I think a few keep coming back. My question is...do molluscum have different stages to them? I've been freaking out this whole time thinking I might have herpes too because I've had a few bumps that hung out for a few weeks and then became kind of pus-like (almost like a zit), and then scabbed over before going away. Can molluscum do this without treatment??
Avatar m tn It's unfortunate that your provider didn't just send you to the dermatologist from the gitgo. urologists are better at "plumbing problems" than they are rashes. the urologist not thinking this is molluscum though is helpful at ruling it out. what cream were you given? You can squeeze a ball of white stuff out of molluscum. it looks different from what you would squeeze out of a pimple on your face though - typically it's on the firmer side.
Avatar n tn Recently i have gotten cyrotherapy for molluscum only about four or five bumps in the genital region. I was wondering if i had to worry about contracting other STDS, such as HIV??
Avatar n tn Friend 1 smoked from a bowl with my other friend (who has molluscum contagiosum) the same night. Call the friend with molluscum contagiosum friend 2. I heard that molluscum contagiosum can be transmitted through saliva, but I am not sure. Am I in danger of contracting molluscum contagiosum? I rinsed my mouth out with Listerine as soon as I arrived home. Also, I only made out with the girls for about a minute. Additionally, friend 2 only has mollusca on his lower abdomen.
Avatar n tn The umbilications or depressions are unique characteristics of molluscum. If this is present ,then molluscum is highly probable. Molluscum does present atypically .They may present as single large nodules or they may develop a stalk. "Atypical lesions may resemble comedones, abscesses, furuncles, condylomas, syringomas, keratoacanthomas, basal cell carcinomas, ecthymas, sebaceous nevi of Jadassohn, and cutaneous horns .
Avatar n tn I have recently been diagnosed with Molluscum Contagiosum in the genital region and was sprayed the same day with liquid nitrogen at the dermatologist's office to treat it. I first noticed the spots a few weeks before my visit to the dermatologists office. I have been with my current girlfriend for about 5 months but am confident I didn't contract it from her seeing how I have never noticed the bumps characteristic of molluscum on her before.
Avatar m tn Early this summer, I noticed strange bumps on my buttocks (anus) region and I made an appointment to see a dermatologist and gynecologist. They both confirmed that I had molluscum and genital warts. I was told by the doctors that the genital warts may have been contracted by any previous partners that I had prior to my 3 year relationship. I am just dumbfounded as to how I acquired the molluscum. With adults, the most likely method of transmission is through sexual activity.
Avatar n tn I had the virus molluscum contagiousum around my genital area about five years ago, and had them burned off. I've just noticed that I have the bumps again. I have had the same partner for the past three years. does this mean that he has been unfaithful, and i've caught this from him? or can it be another reason?
Avatar m tn Hello. I had molluscum treated about 2 3 months ago..there seems to be no lesions on the genital area...But when I used a cream for hairs..I had noticed that there is a small bump looks like a mosquito bite but not like the ones that I had been treated for molluscum...But still I am worried because I am having sex with my girlfriend and spreading that to her..is there any advice that you can give?
Avatar f tn My doctor told me I have molluscum, but I had an outbreak for like 2 months, it stopped hurting for a week and then came back. Is this more like herpes or molluscum? Also, I'm having pain all over my vulva.
Avatar n tn Hey guys. So I've come to the conclusion that those clusters of flesh coloured pimples on my chest are a manifestation of molluscum hence not an hiv related rash as I've past my 7th week now. The only problem is that molluscum is often cited in connection with hiv which concerns me a bit..they say that molluscum is more aggressive in late hiv infection and the like.
Avatar m tn Then I consult to a dermatologist he told me that is Molluscum and recommend me to HIV test I am not sexually active .
Avatar m tn I was told recently that I did NOT have impetigo, but actually had molluscum. The Dr. took a slice of the growth on my face and it was definitely molluscum. What are the best treatments for this condition? I've read so many things and my Dr. appears to be clueless as to exactly what to do. He's a great guy, but just not sure where to go next.
Avatar n tn Molluscum contagiosum,a viral disease eminently treatable with cryo.
Avatar n tn I have read several articles and viewed pictures of Molluscum and I am sure that i may have a mild case of it would it be wise to seek treatment without visiting a doctor since i already know what it is that i have????????
