What are these red bumps on my backside?

Hi,

Was diagnosed a few months ago with molluscum contagiosum by a STD/GUM doctor after she had a look at my penis and thankfully no other issues present - had all the tests, all negative.

But now I have lots of red bumps on my bum - photos attached.

Is this the same thing or something different? I've also been getting lots of dry skin and blistery type things on my feet and hands. I thought it was excema, as did my doctor.

Is it possible to get molluscum on the hands and feet? And likewise, is it posible to get excema on the penis and bottom?

Any advice on what these things are and how to get rid of them would be helpful. Really embarassing.

we don't look at pictures here. why not is explained in our read before posting post on the forum.

bottom line is - you can spread molluscum all over your body. you should be seen and follow up on your symptoms, not post pictures online for strangers to look at.
