Molluscum Contagiosum & Super Glue: What You Need to Know

There is no scientific evidence to support the use of super glue for the treatment of molluscum contagiosum. In fact, using super glue on the skin is not recommended as it can cause skin irritation, infection, and even scarring.

Molluscum contagiosum is a common viral skin infection that causes small, pearly bumps on the skin. It is usually spread through direct contact with an infected person or by sharing contaminated objects. The best way to treat molluscum contagiosum is to leave it alone and allow the body's immune system to clear the infection. In some cases, your doctor may recommend removing the bumps with a sharp object, such as a curette or scalpel.

Please consult a board certified dermatologist for more information on the treatments of Molluscum.
