what is the name of small pox that starts with an M
My husband was at the dermatologist and was diagnosed with a form of small pox on his face. It started with an M but I can't remember the name so I can google it. Do you know what it is called?

Hi,
How are you? Small pox usually presents with red spots that turns into bumps filled with opaque fluid with depression in the center. This could indeed be due to molluscum contagiosum, a viral infection that presents with flesh colored lesions with a dimple in the center also. For proper diagnosis, check with your husband's doctor also. Take care and best regards.
