See a dermatologist: There are a variety of treatments. Much depends on what the child will accept. If you do nothing, they will heal, usually in a few months.

Molluscum treatment: A dermatologist will often prescribe topical retinoid cream or gel or apply a topical blistering agent to a few lesions. See a dermatologist to discuss treatment options based on the number and location of the bumps.
