This uncontrolled growth of the keratinocytes results in a thickened rough round lesion that we see. If the immune system fails to fully clear the virus, we see this lesion for months to years. Molluscum, caused by an unknown virus, follows a similar course with a dissimilar appearance. Neither molluscum nor warts have roots despite the myth propagated over the years. Molluscum lesions have a turbid white appearance under the umbilicated skin papule with the virus located within the upper skin layer. They are 1-4 mm in diameter. Viral warts are a little larger usually 3 -10 mm in size. They form a protective cap of dead skin (keratinocyte) cells and invade the deeper skin layer.
