How long it takes for a child’s molluscum contagiosum to heal on its own depends on the individual’s health and the severity of the lesions. Some children may need 6 to 9 months; some may not be able to heal themselves. Children’s molluscum contagiosum, mainly caused by viral infections, lesions are initially white, hemispherical pimples, which can gradually increase in size, and the number is also uncertain. If you have a strong immune system and the number of mollusks is small, and there is no contact with other parts of the body, there is a possibility of self-healing. However, the exact amount of time varies from person to person, and in some children, the warts may resolve on their own after 6 to 9 months. However, most children may not be able to heal on their own. It is recommended to go to the hospital in time and take treatment such as scraping off the warts under the doctor’s guidance. If left untreated, there is a risk of molluscum contagiosum spreading or infecting others.
