Molluscum End Rash

End Rash not hives

 Beginning of the end of molluscum with hive like rash

Inflamed molluscum forming a wider "rash" is the strongest response 

Inflammation is usually a good sign that the immune system is fighting the virus and starting to clear the infection.

For some it is just a few molluscum, for others it is more widespread looking like a rash.

This rash is sometimes mistaken for hives. Some parents call this the “end rash”. It is also known as the BOTE, “beginning of the end”, response 18. Other medical researchers have described an id reaction as well as a Gianotti-Crosti syndrome-like generalised inflammatory reaction (GCLR) especially in atopic children presenting with molluscum and eczema. The GCLR reaction is potentially 5% of the molluscum infected population and usually results in resolution of the molluscum.21,22

An inflammatory rash can occur in areas around the molluscum as well as the molluscum itself. This is because the molluscum virus has infected a larger area than can be seen easily. A sign of this is that the rash shows up many little bumps (which look like hives) which are very small beginning stage molluscum. These bumps are inflaming and the inflammation is joining up to look like a wider rash. 

Which Mollenol?
When molluscum reaches this stage only apply Mollenol lotion and Patches to molluscum which are not inflamed allowing the inflamed area to settle with many of the molluscum drying out and reducing. Essential Serum is good to have at this stage (for all ages) as it can be used to maintain the health of the skin while healing.
