Pictures are either blurred or show glare
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome to the forum again and thanks for sending the pictures.
I am extremely sorry to say that the pictures are either bit blurred or the other pictures show lot of glare.
Anyhow on the basis of the available resolution it shows whitish to yellowish rather than red areas. It appears to be possibility of molluscum contagiosum. But to confirm any of the possibility I require good resolution pictures.
I very humbly request you to kindly send more pictures with less of glare and focusing the area of concern.
With regards,
Dr Sanjay


Molluscum contagiousum
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Welcome again to the forum and thanks for uploading the pictures.
After thoroughly analyzing the pictures I can get that you have Molluscum contagiousum: It is a type of viral infection caused by molluscum contagiosum virus. It appears as a simple whitish bead and when fully formed mimics a pearl like whitish bump with central indentation in it.
It is totally asymptomatic condition and never cause any discomfort except for itching some times rarely. It is commonly seen after an unprotected or protected sexual intercourse or sometime without this thing also due to skin to skin contact.
Do let me know if you have had any recent history of unprotected intercourse.
Let me reassure you that this one of the simplest viral condition and can be treated very easily. It requires simple cauterization by machine or chemical. You can meet a dermatologist and get it treated completely.
I hope these informations will help you. I will be gals to guide you any further.
