		<description>My son has been battling this for 7 months.  We got them all blistered but only half worked.  Have been applying tea tree oil morning and night.  They are coming to a head but not scabbing over.   Did this happen to anyone first before they went away?  How long did it take to work?</description>

		<description>My 8 year old daughter has MC on the side of her face.. It first started last April with one small bump and now she has several on the right side of her face. Many children have the luxury of covering them up with clothing and/or bandaid but because of the location I do not. I now have teachers questioning what they are. I&#039;ve been to the doctor and dermatologist and they all said it would go away on its own. It&#039;s been almost a year and I just want the ugly little things to go away. She is becoming very self-conscience about them. I will buy a bottle of tea tree oil and soap from the health food store and hope that it works. If any one has any other suggestions please share..</description>

		<description>I am so thankful to have found this blog!  My son  is 2 and has had MC since June.  They first popped up behind his knee and spread quickly.  He also has eczema. He now has over 50 bumps on his legs! It looks terrible and I am incredibly anxious when he is around other children.  I have been avoiding play dates the last few months, even though he always wears pants.   I am terrified he will spread this.

I tried the Conzerol cream advertised on the internet and found it to be incredibly sticky and messy.  I didn&#039;t see a positive result from using it a couple weeks, so I quit.  My pediatrician  prescribed Imiquimod cream to try to trigger an immune response, but that only made them spread. 
 
I just found this blog five days ago.  Since then i have given my son two bleach baths (1/4 cup bleach with a tub half full of water) , and started the tea tree oil treatment once a day.  I have notice the bumps have started to scab over.   I am so excited that this treatment may be working.   Thank you to everyone for sharing their experiences! It is good to know that I am not alone and eventually this will go away!</description>

		<description>My 5 year old daughter has had MC for 8 months now. We have been to two dermatologists. Freezing them did not work and the Veregen prescription cream which I have been applying twice daily has just irritated the heck out of her skin (burning it). My daughter is so uncomfortable as her skin gets more aggravated and itchy. The MC has only worsened and spread over the months. I just started tea tree oil tonight and am crossing my fingers it works.</description>

		<description>My daughter has been dealing with MC for 6 months now. They started on her knee and ankles and spread to her bottom.  Her bottom are the ones that has become infected. She has visted her pediatrician several times receiving advice that they will go away on their own, retinin A gel to burn them and antibiotic cream.  

I have been treating them with tea tree oil and olive oil, she complained of her bottom being too cold after appling full strength.  They has become larger/reddened and pustulas forming on several of them. Will they recede after this?

I also found a cream &quot;Conzerol&quot; (antipoxin) that claim it has antiviral properties against the poxvirus. They claim wart disappear in 7-12 days.  They have a money back guarentee.  Has anyone used this cream?

Thanks for the great tips of showering, washing ALL linen and using tea tree oil on other insect bites.</description>

		<description>Well, I must say that the Tea Tree Oil treatment has worked extremely well for my son so far. It has been less than a week of treatment and the pimple like formations are receding. 

My son has been bothered by these MC outbreaks for about a year now. Reading this post, I must say that the breakouts have not been as severe as some of the ones on this site. However, they have come and gone this past year in various areas and in small clusters. Sometimes just one pimple or up to three. They have affected his forearms, torso, underarms, and thighs. 

His most recent one, and the one I have been treating has been in his armpit. I started the Tea Tree Treatment there less than a week ago and it has already receded to the point that it is almost gone. It started out looking like a regular pimple. I started the treatment and it quickly progressed to the point where it became white (the point right before it pops). It has since popped and is receding. I am extremely happy that it has worked so well.

I am monitoring him closely. He has other MC spots popping up on his back and torso. But they are at the very beginning stages. So I am treating those new spots aggressively. Add to the fact that I am having him bathe at night w/ a different washcloth, having him change his PJ&#039;s daily, and changing his towel daily after his bath. Add to this changing his bedsheets more than usual. This is working for me thus far. 

Thanks to everyone to has posted. You have helped change a life.</description>

		<description>I put cotton balls soaked with Bragg&#039;s vinegar on my 9 year old daughter&#039;s mollescum every night for about 10 days and it was definitely working - they were scabbing up and turning white or black, and little ones would just disappear.  But her skin around the mollescum was extremely irritated and being burned by the acidic vinegar.  We switched to Tea Tree Oil - dabbed it on full strength with qtips in morning and at night, did not cover with bandaids unless it looked like it might erupt.  It works just as well - maybe even better than the vinegar, and doesn&#039;t cause her any pain!!   We&#039;ve been doing it for two weeks, and we have even skipped a few days here and there because we forgot or she spent the night out.  She now only has 1 left (she had about 30 on her knee and lower leg) and that one has already scabbed over and will be gone soon!   I didn&#039;t know about bleach baths, so I didn&#039;t do that.  However, I haven&#039;t let her take baths (only showers) because I have been so worried about it spreading to other more sensitive areas.   I think that a tiny amount of bleach in the bath water is a good idea for those with young ones who aren&#039;t ready to shower.</description>

		<description>My daughter first had the bumps appear about 3 months ago.  Two of them became inflamed, infected, and then became very hard lumps underneath. Took he to to the Dr and they put her on antibotics. After a few days they became worst so we went back to the DR. they immediently sent us into surgery because they were scared of MERSA... This ewas very tramatic for us to say the least!!!!   She had two other spots at the time. I asked the dr and surgeon if they could remove them while she was in surgery for the others. They said they looked ok,  Well.....  here we go again, yet another one is inflamed and infected.   God i hope they dont suggest surgery again followed by weeks of antibotics.   The testbafter the surgery came back NEGATIVE for Mersa.. I cant help but wonder if all could have been avoided some how.... I hate her being on all these meds.... Any suggestions are very welcome... thanks</description>
