1 molluscum on the left cheek was treated 1 x daily for 5 days and disappeared in 1 month.
The mollusca around the eye were NOT treated and disappeared in 2 months.
Molluscum Contagiosum
Molluscum Contagiosum is an eruption of small dome-shaped blisters which are painless, but which can be itchy. Characteristically the blisters often have a small dimple on the top. The blisters are caused by a Pox virus, quite distinct from HPV (Human Papilloma Virus) which causes warts and verrucae.
Conventional treatment is to damage each blister with cryotherapy or with a needle dipped in a caustic agent such as Podophyllin. Both these treatments are painful and do not prevent new blisters from appearing. These treatments cannot be used around the eyes, so would not be offered to a case where eyelids are involved. In the photos above, only one blister on the left cheek was treated twice daily for 4 days with a dressing medicated with Wart Nemesis cream. The blisters around the eye were not treated. It was apparent after 1 month that the treated blister had gone, and after a second month all the blisters on the eyelids had disappeared.
All mollusca including those that were not treated disappeared in 2 months.
It is of interest that Wart Nemesis appears to have a very similar effect on this Pox virus infection as it does for HPV infection (Warts and Verrucae). A direct effect develops in the treated lesion first, and then a delayed effect develops over a few weeks in the untreated lesions. This strongly suggests that the plant extract in some way is able to trigger auto-immunization against the Pox virus as well as the HPV virus. As the viruses are quite distinct, it would suggest that the extract is exposing the antigens under a similar cloaking device. Therefore the effect may be useful in other viral infection where the immune system has difficulty recognising and engaging viral antigen, such as HIV Aids, and Hepatitis B and C.
