Hello,
Thank you for writing to HCM

Molluscum contagiosum can spread on the patient through scratching and rubbing.
It should be removed by cautery. After removal neosporin ointment should be applied in the affected area.
For procedure and further management consult a dermatologist in person..

Regards.
