Suggest Treatment For Itchy Pimple Like Rashes On Thighs
Question: Hi i have pimple like rashes on my thighs. Started with small spots and developed into pimple looking spots and eventually spreads to the upper part of vagina on top of the pubic hair. What could this be? Can be itchy sometimes.
Brief Answer:
Most probably Molluscum contagiosum
Detailed Answer:
Hi.
Thanks for a good picture quality.
These appear to be molluscum contagiosum as every lesion has umbilicated appearance and has a central white spot.
Do not apply anti-fungal cream.
Please consult a Dermatologist to get the diagnosis confirmed and if it molluscum, He / She will do needling therapy.
There is a rare chance of this being folliculitis.
Do not apply anything and do not rub over these, may spread fast and to other areas.
Wishing a good recovery.
