Suggest Treatment For Molluscum Contagiosum Viral Infection

Molluscum Contagiosum--My grandson has been diagnosed with the virus. See attached image. Do you agree? He has an Appt. with his dermatologist tomorrow and I will appreciate your opinion on freezing these bumps since they spread. Also, psoriasis runs in my family and stress triggers it. He plays sports and acquired a staff infection which took surgery to release. However, see the bumps around where the surgery was performed please. The bumps have spread to his stomach and a few on his back. I ll appreciate your input and assessment. Thank you

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such skin lesion may need some investigations if this is viral infection then it may not need any specific treatment, final diagnosis is entirely depends upon clinical examinations and tests, hope this information helps, take care and have a nice day.
