Abstract

Molluscum contagiosum is a common cutaneous viral infection primarily affecting children, though it can also present as a sexually transmitted disease in adults. This report presents a case of a 3.5-year-old male with multiple dome-shaped papular eruptions across various body regions. Diagnosis was confirmed based on characteristic morphology. The treatment strategy included homeopathic remedies, beginning with Calcarea Phosphorica, followed by Tuberculinum. This case highlights the effectiveness of individualized homeopathic treatment for molluscum contagiosum.
