Abstract

Molluscum contagiosum is a common viral skin infection in children, often managed with topical agents or destructive procedures, with variable outcomes and frequent recurrences. This case report presents the successful constitutional homeopathic management of a 4-year-old child with persistent facial molluscum contagiosum of more than three months’ duration, unresponsive to conventional topical therapy and advised invasive intervention elsewhere. A holistic assessment focusing on mental, general, and physical characteristics guided individualized homeopathic intervention. Progressive clinical improvement was observed over six months, culminating in complete resolution without scarring or recurrence. This case demonstrates a clear transformation achieved through individualized homeopathic treatment at Dr Batra’s Homeopathy Clinic.
